In the words of the Fourteenth <strong>Dalai</strong> L<strong>am</strong>a “world peace” is supposed to be strengthened with every<br />

Kalachakra ritual. He repeats this again and again! But is this really his intention?<br />

the Kundun), writes in the final section of his book, Prisoners of Shangri-La, that “this peace may<br />

have a special meaning, however, for those who take the initiation are planting the seeds to be reborn<br />

in their next lifetime in Sh<strong>am</strong>bhala, the Buddhist pure land across the mountains dedicated to the<br />

preservation of Buddhism. In the year 2245 [?], the army of the king will sweep out of Sh<strong>am</strong>bhala and<br />

defeat the barbarians in a Buddhist Armageddon,[!] restoring Buddhism to India and to the world and<br />

ushering in a reign of peace” (Lopez, 1998, p. 207).<br />
