Yeah that's dumb that their charging cash for that.
I met him when I was a kid and he gave me some "lucky" powder telling that "everything will be alright".
They're actually charging tickets to see the Dalai Lama?
That's just pure irony.
He's a champion of peace, not a communist. I'm not sure I see the irony.
Besides, imagine if the entrance was free. People would camp out for days, the day of the visit would be a havoc to secure.
Yeah I can understand that havoc part, agreed.
I thought it was funny that a wise man that preaches love, brotherhood, being not materialistically focused but spiritually. And if you want to see him speak, you have to pay us first.
That I believe to be a pretty good example of irony.

The Dalai Lama is full of shit
