Dear friends, In the past, believing in God was almost a cultural trend in America and other Western countries; it was just what most people did.

Dear friends, It is a very common occurrence for birds to fly into windows. Most of our windows are clear and transparent, and birds will fly straight into the window thinking that they are heading towards an open space.

(By Tsem Rinpoche) Dear friends around the world, I came across this interesting article on my Facebook news feed. I read it and realised that it is something I should share with others.

Issues of religious discrimination have been going on for hundreds of years, it must stop now. This discrimination has brought nothing but pain and sorrow and so each person should be given religious freedom to adopt whichever religion they wish to.
