  • THE DALAI LAMA IS “VERY DISAPPOINTED” WITH US

    24 Mar 2009 by Seth Rotherham in Cape Town Crazy, Dalai Lama, Mind Fuck, Politics, Religion, Uncool, World

    Nobel peace laureate and Richard Gere’s best mate, The Dalai Lama, is “very disappointed” by South Africa’s decision denying him a visa to enter South Africa. This, following intense pressure from China, who despise His Holiness.

    I really must apologise, bru – if we had anything to do with it, you know you’d get a free pass.

    News24 reports : The Dalai Lama had planned to join other Nobel peace laureates at a conference to discuss ways of using football to fight racism and xenophobia ahead of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

    Stop for a second and appreciate
    whoever it was that asked him
    for his autograph. Awesome!

     

    Whilst it certainly is incredibly emboerrissing, I did get a surprise when I saw “Dalai Lama” and “visa” in the same sentence. You just kind of always think the Dalai Lama just appears, without having to use general modes of transports; certainly above any kind of red tape or stamp approval. I mean, have you SEEN where he LIVES?

    (Or, at least it was, until he fled
    to India – thanks danny)

     

    They obviously missed this bit on Wikipedia : The Dalai Lama is believed to be the current incarnation of a long line of Tulkus, or Buddhist Masters, who have become exempt from the wheel of death and rebirth. These ascended masters have chosen of their own free will to be reborn to this place in order to enlighten others.

    He is “exempt from the wheel of death and rebirth” and you won’t give him a fucking visa? That’s like Tiger-Tiger asking to see John Smit ‘s stamp. It’s not going to happen, buddy – it’s the Springbok Captain, for God’s sake! Different, but quite similar – given that Smit (The Barndog ) is a man of peace.

    And now (don’t mess with my) Tutu and FW de Klerk are boycotting the conference and the Dalai Lama is very disappointed with us!

    Nice, guys! You’re created, what we in the industry refer to as, a “fuckshow.”

    Shot.

    (It should be placed on record that 2oceansvibe is seriously considering adding The Dalai Lama to The 2oceansvibe Characters List as “The Holy Guy.”)
