:51:02
- Were you hurt, Taktra Rinpoche?
- I am fine, Kundun.
:51:07
I am old
and too tough to kill.
:51:16
Now, tell me about China.
:51:20
Ah, yes. Again, a very
complicated situation, Holiness.
:51:25
Your Holiness, the Chinese are once
again trying to convince the world...
:51:30
that Tibet belongs to them.
:51:32
- Tibet is Tibet.
- For a long time, Holiness,
:51:35
we have agreed to disagree.
:51:37
We knew,
and we knew that they knew.
:51:41
Now, they are
trying to rewrite history.
:51:47
How unfortunate.
:51:53
Why don't we ask all
the Chinese living here to leave?
:51:55
If there are no Chinese in Tibet,
we cannot be a Chinese region.
:51:59
Very good, Kundun.
:52:02
It is time we remind
the world we are independent,
would you say, Holiness?
:52:06
Can lndia help us? They know
we are not a part of China.
:52:11
India is a newly independent nation.
They are struggling.
:52:14
They are in no position
to help us.
:52:17
Britain?
:52:19
Britain chooses not to.
:52:23
And America?
:52:25
America. America.
We shall see, Holiness.
:52:30
I shall write a letter
to the president of America.
:52:34
Excellent, Kundun.
:52:36
I will go see
Reting Rinpoche now.
:52:39
I must advise against that,
Holiness.
:52:47
I want Reting Rinpoche
well cared for.
:52:51
He is my teacher.
He found me.
:52:54
It will be as you say, Holiness.
