I am looking for the Long Usnisha Vijaya mantra in tibetan. Does
anyone know where I can find this. Below is a short recommendation by
Lama Kyabje Zopa Rinpoche. If there's a tibetan chant of this I
would also very much appreciate it.
TIA
-----------------
The Namgyelma (Ushnisha Vijaya) mantras
(Recommendations and Dedications by Ven. Kyabje Zopa Rinpoche)
You can recite the Namgyelma (Ushnisha Vijaya) mantras twenty-one
times, then blow on water, perfume or talcum powder, blessing it with
the mantra and then sprinkle that substance over the dead body. The
Namgyelma mantra is very powerful for purifying; it is best to recite
the long mantra if possible but the short mantra can also be recited.
Short Namgyelma mantras
om drum soha,
om amrita ahyur daday soha,
om ah hung tam hri/ ang ah rakya rakya mam sarwa satam tsa soha
Long Namgyelma mantra
om namo bhagawatay sarwa taylokya parti bishik taya/buddha yatay nama/
tayatha om drum drum drum shodaya shodaya bishodaya bishodaya ahsama
samenta/ awabhasa pranagati gagana sabawa bishuday/ abikintsen...

Beijing plans to 're-educate' Lhasa monks
BEIJING: China warned on Saturday it would step up a controversial "re-
education" campaign for Tibetans after a fresh protest showed a huge
security crackdown had failed to extinguish nearly one month of
unrest.
The statement in the state-run 'Tibet Daily' called for Buddhist monks
to become Chinese patriots, but activist groups said the heavy-handed
techniques already employed in the campaign were inflaming tensions.
Efforts by authorities to "re-educate" monks at a monastery in Sichuan
province in southwest China led to protests there on Thursday in which
at least eight Tibetans were killed, the activist groups said.
China's communist rulers have been deeply angered and embarrassed over
the Tibetan unrest, as it has overshadowed preparations for the
Beijing Olympics and exposed other human rights issues.

Chinese authorities 'strike hard' at the group, victims dying within days of
arrest (4/2/2008 1:56)
NEW YORK -- The Falun Dafa Information Center is alarmed at a series of
reports indicating adherents in China are being killed in custody within
days, or even hours, of being detained by authorities. The Center expressed
today that the escalating maltreatment is a direct result of efforts
to 'stamp out' Falun Gong prior to the summer Olympics.
'The speed with which Falun Gong adherents are being seized by police,
abused, and turning up dead is alarming and reprehensible,' says Falun Dafa
Information Center spokesperson Ms. Gail Rachlin. 'These are people who
never should have been arrested in the first place. Arbitrary arrests,
torture, and extrajudicial executions are no way to 'prepare' for the
Olympics.'
'If China's communist authorities wish to hold a truly 'successful' Olympic
Games, rounding up and killing those who might remind us that 'all is not
well' is not the way to go about it. The artificially sterile, silent
streets of Beijing should give visitors the chills.'

Meat + Belle + Weapon + Lie
They kill and eat livestocks for generations.
They said that sexual intercourse is a high level meditation.
They illicitly store a great deal weapons in temple.
They have talent to tell lies , their super-star is Dalai Lama.

Having examined the 'books' you authored, it is clear you are a mental
deviant unworthy of any philosophical system dirrected at noesis.
I did not know, until seeing your works list, that you were a deviant
with a fistfull of cash, paying young Thai boys for fellatio and
anal sex. -----In my previous EMAIL letter to you , i was fully
unaware of your base, low, ignoble status as a pseudo-member of an
intelligencia.
Perhaps, in Australia and elsewhere, your deviant mind is 'normal'.
Such is samsarati (i.e. samsara)
If i had this book list below, as you do, i would hide same, not
flaunt it, but such is the deviant mind that it praises what is base
and profane-

Have you guys ever had this hot blonde in a pony tail, with the
nicest, and lots of eye make up on walk by you everyday, turning her
hips just a little bit and smiling, like "I wanna F*ck you". And my
god she is beautiful. I wiash i could god damn pulverize her p*ssy.
It is killing me because i see her everyday.. but she is my boss.. she
is 26 and drives me crazy!! My hormones go fruit loops whenever she
walks by.. She is basically like the finest playbpy centerfold/
innocent porn actress that actually hasnt F*cked alot that you have
ever seen.. She makes me have all these fantasies that my wildest
sexual dream will come true. But i have had sex enough.. it was
crappy.. she just makes me feel like she could blow my mind.
am i off in the clouds here? BTW here name is Jessica and if you saw
her and she smiled at you, you would be in the same possition.
Im trying hard, but she is distracting me... and i dont see any way
out of it.
