Buddhism is deep within us. Now,there are more Chinese than Tibetans here. If we raise our heads they can easily push us down. We are frightened into silence. Broken by the memory of past suffering we cannot trust even those we call friends.
People disappear in the night.
It is dangerous to tell anyone the truth of our suffering. The women in our village are called to be sterilized one by one. Those who refuse must pay a fine. They have no money so they have no choice. When you marry you will have as many children as is written in your fate.
