China Falls for Tibet Chic
Despite Beijing's criticisms of lamas and their culture, citizens are getting into prayer-wheel kitsch

Growing numbers of Chinese now practice Tibet's form of Buddhism, fill their glasses with Tibetan booze and consider a jaunt on the high plateau a badge of cool. Many of the Tibetan practices they ape can be as tacky as white men in redface doing a rain dance. Yet given that official propaganda has for decades blamed Tibetan culture itself for keeping Tibetans poor, ignorant and not above suspicion of cannibalism, this sudden interest shows the government's decreasing ability to mold public opinion, and the growing independence of Chinese trendmakers. "More information about Tibetan culture has come available, so more people see its value," says Zhao Jia, a travel executive who next month will release an off-the-track guidebook to Tibet's farthest reaches.

People's Daily - Commentary [Official news agency fof the PRC]
July 29, 2002
The graduation of the first group of postgraduates from colleges in Tibet
Autonomous Region has proved that local institutions of higher learning have
become sacred sites where traditional Tibetan culture is carried forward and
developed.
The 10 postgraduates, all Tibetans, completed their post-graduate studies
and were awarded graduation and master's degree certificates on July 17.
They majored in Tibetology, the history of the Tibetan ethnic group, Tibetan
language and Tibetan medicine which constitute the core of Tibetan
culture over the past three years. Their success shows that Tibetans can promote and carry forward their traditional culture in pace with the times. This was unimaginable in the past, however. Before the peaceful liberation of Tibet in 1951, there was not a single school in Tibet in a modern sense and education was only a tool controlled and manipulated by temples, with

http://www.tibet-travel.com/e-Tibet-Culture.htm
Tibetan Calendar - In the 7 th century, Princess Wen Cheng brought Tang's calendar to Tibet. Around 9 th century, Indian Buddhists adopted aru-yoga of the Esoteric Buddhism and the Han calendars to form the present Tibetan calendars. The main purposes of the Tibetan calendars were providing a working seasonal schedule for farmers and shepherds, also, dating the enlightening date of Buddha. Tibetan Medicine - The Han medicine was transmitted to Tibet by the two Tang Princesses Wen Cheng and Jin Cheng. During the revival of the Buddhism in Tibet, many Indian monks were fond of medicine, and transmitted Indian medicine to Tibet. Thangkas - are painted or embroidered images rendered on cloth, silk or paper which is mounted on a cloth backing and may be rolled up like a scroll when not hung. The Eastern Tibetan was the oldest and heavily influenced by those of the Han nationality. This style is individualistic and probably too free for the taste of Buddhists. The Western school began after the Indian master - Atisa came to Tibet in 11 th century.
