Meditation for December 26th, 2016

The Dalai Lama & Donald Trump Are The Same

Donald Trump will become the 45th president of the United States of America and His Holiness The Dalai Lama is still the exiled spiritual leader of Tibet, a semi-autonomous region of China. Both leaders are loved by many, and despised by many others. They are in fact the very same.

On Women

When asked if the next Dalai Lama could be a woman, The Dalai Lama responded, “That female must be attractive, otherwise it is not much use…” and that he could come back as a, “mischievous blonde woman,” or “no one will pay attention.”

When asked about the media writing negative things about him, Donald Trump responded by saying, “You know, it doesn’t really matter what [they] write as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of ass.”

On women being leaders, The Dalai Lama said, “Western women will save the world,” rejecting the idea that any women from the east will be able to lead.

In his book, The Art of the Deal, Trump writes, “There are basically three types of women and reactions. One is the good woman who very much loves her future husband, solely for himself, but refuses to sign the agreement on principle. I fully understand this, but the man should take a pass anyway and find someone else. The other is the calculating woman who refuses to sign the prenuptial agreement because she is expecting to take advantage of the poor, unsuspecting sucker she’s got in her grasp. There is also the woman who will openly and quickly sign a prenuptial agreement in order to make a quick hit and take the money given to her.” This rejects that women are good at all.

On why women make better leaders than me, the Dalai Lama responded, “In that respect, biologically, females have more potential….Females have more sensitivity about others’ well-being. In my own case, my father, very short temper. On a few occasions I also got some beatings. But my mother was so wonderfully compassionate.” While biologically untrue, the Dalai Lama believes in gender roles.

On China

Donald Trump has very strong words about our relations with China, “We can’t continue to allow China to rape our country, and that’s what they’re doing,”

Talking about China’s relations with Tibet, His Holiness said that the communist government of China has turned Tibet into “Hell on earth,” and that they treat Tibetans like “criminals deserving to be put to death.” Tibet, while still under Chinese rule, is an autonomous non religious country.

Donald Trump once took to the environmental debate by Tweeting, “The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive.” 

To President Bush accepting the Congressional Gold Medal, The Dalai Lama says, “The consistency of American support for Tibet has not gone unnoticed in China. Where this has caused some tension in the US-China relations, I feel a sense of regret.” He says he feels regret, but continually asks the U.S. and other western nations to put a very economical beneficial relationship at risk for an unknown outcome.

Donald Trump used his distrust of China to battle his way on the campaign trail, he says famously, “We’re like their whipping post, the United States. We have people who don’t understand the system. We have people that don’t get it. We are being ripped by many countries, China being the No. 1 abuser. They do it better than anybody else,”

The Dalai Lama ignores history about Tibet’s relationship with China by saying, “The Chinese government wants me to say that for many centuries Tibet has been part of China. Even if I make that statement, many people would just laugh. And my statement will not change past history. History is history.”

On Happiness

The Dalai Lama bravely says, “The purpose of our lives is to be happy.” 

The Donald says a very similar thing by saying, “Everything in life is luck.”

The Dalai Lama believes in anger by stating, “Generally speaking, if a human being never shows anger, then I think something’s wrong. He’s not right in the brain.”

Donald agrees full heartedly: “When somebody challenges you, fight back. Be brutal, be tough.”

On the Global Economy

The Dalai Lama has some very strong views on the growing global economy, “Today different ethnic groups and different nations come together due to common sense.”

Trump agrees, he writes about that a good U.S. and Europe relationship, “depends on a cohesive global economy…All of us must work together toward that very significant common goal,”

The Dalai Lama says, “The world has also learned that economic growth, by itself, cannot close the gap between rich and poor.”

So the Donald shares in the Lama’s desire to close the economic gap by, “In order to achieve the American dream, let people keep more money in their pockets and increase after-tax wages.”

On Immigration

“The main effort should go to help their own country bring peace, in Syria, Libya or even Afghanistan. Generally the people always feel, ‘oh, one day we return’,” the Dalai Lama told a reporter. “[They] should rebuild their own country.”

Donald Trump wants only the best to come here, “It’s our right as a sovereign nation to choose immigrants that we think are the likeliest to thrive and flourish and love us.”

When asked about the Syrian and other Middle East immigrants coming to Europe, The Dalai Lama said, “But on the other hand, there are too many at the moment… Europe, Germany in particular, cannot become an Arab country, Germany is Germany” Hitler would agree.

Donald Trump of course agrees with both Hitler and the Dalai Lama, and he goes on with that idea by saying, “suspend immigration from areas of the world when there is a proven history of terrorism against the United States, Europe, or our allies.”

No one likes the Dalai Lama or President Donald Trump

While England, Russia, China, South Africa, and a host of other nations have denied the Dalai Lama’s request for visas because the Dalai Lama has nothing really to offer, China does economically. 

No one but a lot of has beens and nobodies will play President Trump’s inauguration ball. Donald Trump won the Presidency with 2.9 million less votes than Secretary Hillary Clinton, so 53.9% of the country does not want Donald Trump to be president, and he hasn’t taken office yet and he already has the approval rating of 41%. 

In conclusion, we have a possible millionaire who is running the most powerful country in the world, or at least second if you count Russia, and a spiritual leader who is a spiritual leader by being the reincarnation of that spiritual leader and people give him money to just be that spiritual leader. 

They both have a sexist mysoginistic view of women, they both have a dangerous relationship with China, they both seek economic austerity and happiness, and they both hate immigrants. Your prayer flags are basically Donald Trump support flags.
