When Lama peaks..!
By- Pamarty Venkataramana
He was an escapee. Taunted a whole seven decades and more as a refugee, he basked in the safety of the truest ‘land of peace’ on Earth. Along with his band of followers. Who too escaped from the jaws of death in hands of cruel killers who took over the land of their forefathers.
It was no battle for riches but clearly a battle for wealth masked by religious pursuits and vice versa. If the hordes who hunted them established their hegemony there,this little old guy set up a parallel empire in exile.
Exiled from home land and very little in adopted land, he embraced the land of uncle S and even collected a Nobel for Peace. All he did was globe-trotting preaching what the mother religion of his religion always said across the centuries of existence of both civilisation and mankind.
His lair in adopted land carries a different tale. Almost like Xanadu of comic hero – Mandrake, no human who entered into the innermost rooms atop the scenic valley to probe into tales of otherwise banned substances and activities in the free world of a Sovereign country, ever returned back – alive or dead! Huge seven footer guards that would shake WWF stars act as the first line of outer defence.
Across the decades of asylum, his clan multiplied quietly and one who has dealt with court matters in Dharamshala would certify the wanton acts of house grabbing carried out there. The currency is not of the adopted country that has welcomed with love and sheltered them blindly but of uncle S!
The much-travelled lama’s tribe have occupied several parts of the country without the natives realising the takeover.
The Lama has peaked. Or so it appears now with a gross statement of male chauvinist streak exhibited in calling for a woman of ‘beautiful contours’ being fit to succeed his mantle and fiefdom stretching globally – reportedly running into trillions of wealth hoarded, generated and essentially hidden in ancient tracts and artefacts.
Treasure house. Forbidden city. Lost land. Invisible on map. De facto commander of vested interests bent on ruining the ties between the great India and her big brother, China.
Many are the labels that can be ascribed if one looks through the looking glass and beyond the shine and veneer of this disrobed monk of a being.
A #NewIndia can be stitched even more rapidly and with solidity if solidarity and peace prevails between the two giants of Asia – India and China.
It is high time for commentators and starred advisors of the Indian Prime Minister to recognise the truth that dragon nation has soldiers who have grown old and is hence taking recourse to technical weaponisation.
India‘s modern day hero, Modiji has been taking positive steps in breaking the ice with his counterparts in China. Border wars were created by the departed colonising land of the English queen who went about splitting the Asian civilisations into different lands before finally departing from India after the last cruel partition in 1947 into three parts based on religion. Hinduism believes in coexistence of all humans as creatures of Universe and so, Pakistan was created for fundamentalist Muslims out of portions belonging to India. The Tibetans fled China led by Mr.Dalai Lama and were given refuge by India. The Lama has peaked.
So, what should the Indian Government do now to reset the password of Peace in Asian economies?
First and foremost, to declare the Lama as a persona non grata and withdraw the status of refugees (and preferential treatment given over native population of majority religion Hindus be halted with immediate effect).
Secondly, Tibetans would be granted status of -‘expatriates’ in India just as Indians and every other national residing in the Gulf region are ‘expatriate population’.
Thirdly, India must forge an altogether new relationship with China by executing a long term contract of at least thirty years to buy all textiles produced by China. Uncle S is using the ruler via trade tariffs regime to oust China dominance in whole of North America. In turn, China will buy items required for their consumption available only in India.
Fourthly, borders between India, China and Russia must be opened for citizens of these three major Asian players in the BRICS forum. Border control can be tightened. Visa on arrival must be made available between India and China.
Fifth, all Bangladesh citizens can be welcomed to work in India as ‘expatriate workers’ since India has lost its third and fourth class work force to brittle politics of its leaderships ever since exodus from the erstwhile East Pakistan to East India upon its liberation and declaration as Bangladesh. This would help solve the costly exercise of National Registry of Citizenship and all entailed controversies.
The Lama has peaked. He has spoken. This is the golden key to building a #NewIndia by expelling a traitor and embracing a dear old lost big brother called China.
Heed my words, Oh Parliament of India!
Awaken the spirit of Hindi-Chini bhai-bhai. Enact the above laws without dithering or taking resort to Pygmy reporters and snacks – munching committees who are unfit to address geo-political and economic issues of a world fast hurtling towards a Third World War.
Jai Hind!
