I am extremely thankful to yours latest edition of talk on homosexuality related topic which is really like exploring into the new world,which has been interesting and unseen scene. I praise especially for Jampa and Tenzin for their bravery coming out from our Tibetan forbidden and narrow minded custom,I should say,I am not sure whether it is right or not.But compare with other nation,our mind are narrow and scepticisn with openness towards other custom although it might be related with our religion. Since most of our tradition are very much related with religion,believe it or not.

So regarding homosexuality or gay system, I am not against their affair and they are free to do anything. For the lay people,there is no restriction at all,they can apt to any western system,whichever is comfortable for them.But we shouldnot be inferior to our culture of shyness, politeness and respectable way of doing which has been with out blood since from the first Tibetan span of beings. I am not denying the fact of proper lesson from other side of countries,but at the same time,there should have some cultural base for any ornament to beautify it. I think you understand what I mean. We shouldnot convert all our tradition into mixture of western tradition. But the root should be Tibetan, which base on Buddhist practices of Love, compassion, respect, moral conduct, etc.

For the monks community,there is rule for conduct which was already established by Lord Buddha. It has been still practicing although there might be having some defective and uncomfortable for some young monks. Wangyal lak, you can’t say SANGYE CHOMDEN only.It should be spelled full SANGYE CHOMDEN DES, otherwise it doesnot carry full meaning. I hope you know its meaning. It can be mean by The Victorous Conqueror,which can be extensively mean to those higher person who have conquered completely all the inner enemy of ignorance or hatred etc. I think it is due to your lack of knowledge on Buddhism, that you people were viewing by estimating only and pick out only those words which are helpful to prove your personal wishes. If you really get some taste of Buddhism, then naturally you people will get faith towards Lord Buddha and its teaching. There will be no way of any words coming out from your mouth which goes against His words. You can’t branded the entire monks into the fog of lesser monk who were doing misconduct and immorality. I am not totally against your views on monks or ex-monks because there is some reason. But we Tibetan people should have some peculiar from the western community, where they donot feel uneasy at all in criticizing their Bishop or monks. They donot have faith or respect as in our community. We considered of sinful act in criticizing to the monks conduct, although all the monks are not like Buddha. There is some border,I think.

It was indeed a great job done by Tibetanbridges. I truly appreciate Tezinla and Jampala for coming out of the closet and bringing out the truth that has always remained unspoken of in our community specially. Hats off to them and I wish them goodluck in watever they do in life. People must break this taboo and look into the reality with eyes wide open. Homosexuality is not by their choice.. it comes naturally. So we must respect them for they are just a normal person like us.

Wow...this week's show is so captivating, lively, fun and yet so informative and compelling. I think TibetanBridges did an awesome job bringing up the subject of homosexuality in the Tibetan Community. Much admiration to Tsetan la and Jampa la for being able to be themselves and to come out on the show and be able to talk about homosexuality and shining some light on people who dont know much about Tibetan homosexuals. By coming on to the show, you have overcome fear, rejection and prejudice. By doing so, you have humbled me by being able to be yourself and stand up for it. You have broken down a facade behind which we all live and be truly able to love yourself. Thanks for sharing yourself with the rest of us.

interesting stuff. kudos to both tenzinla and jampala for coming out of the closet and talking about it here on tibetanbridges! wish you both luck. =)
