The Fourteenth Dalai Lama has cultivated an image of himself as a follower of Ghandian non-violence, and yet in reality since coming to power he has repeatedly organised violence against those he has regarded as his enemies. Through his government and his personal representatives he has ordered assassinations and war. In his efforts to maintain his status and power, the Dalai Lama ignores the pacifist principles of Buddhism to accomplish his short term political objectives.
