Letters from a Tibetan Colony
In this moving piece from over a decade ago, Dr. Sriram Shamasunder,
shares updates from a month working in a refugee community comprised
mostly of Buddhist monks and nuns. He writes of the contrast between the
deep care and concern that this community extends to all forms of life,
and the apathy with which their own medical needs are handled by the
government. His poignant piece is a reminder of the many gaps that exist
in our world, and a tribute to the many unsung heroes who have
dedicated their lives to trying to fill them.
