Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche
In Tibet, more than a thousand years ago, many great saints possessed the knowledge to prevent wars, famines and disease, This was accomplished through the construction, consecration and the appropriate placement of special 'vases' containing precious objects and substances which created a sustained, harmonic environmental grid that pervaded the surrounding area. From the time these vases were 'planted' until the time the Chinese communist forces brought about the 'cultural revolution' it was recorded in Tibetan history that there were no major wars, famines or disease.
We, of the technological societies have for many years witnessed the reckless deterioration of the world. Our Earth's resources are being rapidly rape, plungered or polluted and will eventually be exhausted, or will exhause themselves. Wars, large and small, are being fought to obtain sovereign, secular or religious power. Diseases for which cures have been discovered are being replaced by more virulent ones for which new cures must be found. This man-made process of deterioration is making our planet an unsafe and unfit place to live and poses an enormous threat to any possible solution to world harmony, peace and to the very survival of humankind.
