E-Books →Tibet in Chains The Stories of Nine Tibetan Nuns

This book tells the story of nine of those nuns and provides a better understanding of the role played by Tibetan nuns in the Tibetan freedom movement. Through their personal stories, we are able to have a sense of their life in Tibet, of their motivation to speak up against oppression-despite the certainty that they would be severely punished-and of the importance of Tibetan religion, culture and identity, and why the world should not forsake the Tibetan people.
"I will always remember my former prison mates who suffer ill health. I always support and participate in movements for the cause of Tibet and the Tibetan people. In the beginning, I had little knowledge of the history of Tibet but knew clearly that China and Tibet were separate ... Because the cause of Tibet is deeply embedded in our hearts, and until this long-felt aspiration is fulfilled, my spirit will never die." - Sonam Choedon, one of the nuns featured in the book
The International Campaign for Tibet wishes to thank the Italian Buddhist Union for providing an essential grant to make the publication of this book possible.
