Tibetan Friendship Group

Accessed: 4/4/19
Another source of volunteers came via the international network she had established in Delhi, the Tibetan Friendship Group, through which Freda roped in pen pals, sponsors, and helpers for her tulkus and Tibetan refugees in general.
One such volunteer, John Weir Hardy, a particularly well-connected young man (educated at Eton, England's most exclusive and expensive private school), wrote glowingly in a newsletter of his experience with Freda:I left England embittered, having lost faith in humanity. Business life was never my strong point. The Tibetans have cured me of my despondency and have taught me much. They gave me the necessary balance which one must find to go through life and Mummy was able to show me how to benefit from combining the spiritual with the material. Every fleeting second is a world in itself, another facet of a complex people's way of life, another glimpse into a world which is far more cultured than I have ever met.
And so the progress. Eton is taking much interest in the work and is going to run a major appeal in the hopes of raising about one thousand pounds, most of which will go toward a jeep.
Freda's Tibetan Friendship Group newsletter was one way that she let the outside world know about the plight of Tibet and what had happened to its people as a result of the Chinese invasion. In her lifetime she wrote literally tens of thousands of letters, usually working late into the night, to societies and individuals seeking funds, goods, skills, clothes, expertise, and anything else that was needed. She used all her skills of persuasion and journalism, making each letter intensely personal to encourage total involvement and therefore willingness to give. Her approach was quintessentially Freda, emphasizing human interest over intellectual argument:This is Yangchen (picture provided), a little novice girl of Tilokpur, the Mahayana Buddhist nunnery. She is the politest little girl we have. Good manners are a little-considered virtue these modern days, but how comfortable it is to have a pleasant little girl like this. SHE NEEDS A SPONSOR [sic] at $7 a month, or even $5 for food. Her younger sister, Jayong, aged 7-8, is very bright, a darling child.
About a refugee school in Varanasi that she had visited and taken under her wing, she wrote,There was a great deal of student poverty. They have scholarships, which are meager, but there are always emergencies -- clothes to be bought and medicines beyond what can be provided. I wish someone could remember the students at Christmas. The boy that was helped with medicines (gift of Mrs. Mollie Noeltner, USA) still faces the operation and would need at least Rs 400 (about $54) for the heart drugs. Another student looks very TB-ish. Many of the pupils would love student pen friends. They would have to send postage money to the students, though. Even if no great sums were sent, it would give them a sense of companionship and courage.

Single-handedly Freda had already set the scene for Buddhism to make the historic leap from East to West when she had the foresight to establish the Young Lamas Home School. In 1972, the year of her full ordination as a bikshuni nun, she took another momentous step in that direction by personally agreeing to take the Buddha's message to South Africa, the first of several overseas "missions" she undertook....
The invitation had come from Rosemary Vosse, a theosophist descended from Italian nobility, who had met Freda in India. She had literally begged Freda, now known as Sister Palmo, to come to South Africa, which was being brutally ripped apart by the bloody internal war of apartheid, as blacks fought for equal rights and the end to racial segregation. ...
It was an invitation Freda could not resist. Any notion of racial inequality and suppression of freedom was an immediate clarion call to her. In fact it was in Johannesburg that her hero, Mahatma Gandhi, had formulated his philosophy of peaceful civil resistance, triggered when he was ordered to move from a first-class carriage to a third-class carriage because he was "colored," despite the fact that he was working as a lawyer there and had a valid ticket. The result was Satyagraha, his Doctrine of Truth, which he propagated there for twenty years and which Freda espoused when she became a Satyagrahi.
Her tour was to encompass Johannesburg, Capetown, Durban, and Port Elizabeth....
She addressed audiences, large and small, who had come as a result of publicity generated by her Tibetan Friendship Group.
***
She hoped Kabir, now a film star, would be able to visit, accompanied by his new girlfriend now that he'd divorced his first wife, the flamboyant classical Indian dancer named Protima. "Kabir is back after a great success on TV in Europe. He has now made his first Italian film, Black Corsair," she wrote proudly to Valerie Grove, from the very active Australian branch of the Tibetan Friendship Group.
***
March 28, 1977, the day of her death, was an interesting one....
Throughout the day many people spontaneously turned up to visit Freda, many of them from the Tibetan Friendship Group that Freda had founded. She greeted them all warmly and told them about her new project to sponsor Tibetan children in top Indian public schools, especially girls, who had less chance of receiving a good education than boys.

Rosemary was known to her many Tibetan friends as Karma Dolma Chuzom, a name which was given to her by H.H. the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje. To many of us, she was simply known as Dolma, ‘Mother.’
Over the years, Rosemary was a great inspiration to many through her selfless service to Humankind. She was deeply involved in Theosophy, with her late husband -- and was a President of the Cape Town Lodge.
Inspired by an article which appeared in The Middle Way, the Journal of The Buddhist Society in London, Rosemary founded The Tibetan Friendship Group in the late 1950’s and edited its Newsletter -- The Tibetan Friendship Group Newsletter, for many years, which then changed into The Bodhisattva Path, and eventually transformed into eighteen issues of MAITRI under the Editorship of Karma Samten (Andre de Wet), AND Sheila Fugard.
-- In Memory of Rosemary Vosse (Karma Dolma Chuzom), by http://luxlapis.tripod.com
Freda was concerned that the Indian authorities simply didn't understand the tradition of incarnate lamas, and their critical place in Tibetan society and spiritual practice. Little was done to identify these young lamas, some little more than infants. 'Nobody knew quite what to do with them,' Freda lamented to Olive Shapley. 'In the lamas we have inherited a tradition that dates back to the seventh century -- spiritual richness we can only as yet partially realise,' she wrote to friends. 'I am sure the whole world will ultimately be enriched.'There are perhaps 200 high 'incarnate' lamas in the country now headed by His Holiness [the Dalai Lama] (including 40-60 child or adolescent incarnations: many of them young people of extraordinary intelligence and physical beauty) ... dedicated monks and lamas of a high standard of learning and spirituality number perhaps 2,500; in addition we have junior and simpler country monks, over 1,500 of whom have volunteered for roadwork. We all pray ultimately we may be able to settle the bulk of the refugees in big land settlements.
Nehru had taken a diplomatic risk by hosting the Dalai Lama and tens of thousands of those who followed in his wake. But there was a limit to the amount of official support and funding that could be expected for the refugees' welfare, with the most urgent and unmet need being the upkeep and education of the young lamas.
Freda was entirely comfortable soliciting money and support from the rich and well connected. She had also established links with Buddhist and similar groups in London and elsewhere. Within weeks of returning to Delhi from the camps, she sought to turn her extensive network to the Tibetans' advantage. In mid-August 1960, she wrote a long letter to Muriel Lewis, a California-based Theosophist with whom she had corresponded for several years. Muriel ran the Mothers' Research Group principally for American and Western Theosophists, a network which had an interest both in eastern religions and in parenting issues.I should like to feel that the 'Mothers' Group' was in touch with all I do (Freda wrote). Do you think it would be possible for some of your members to 'Adopt' in a small way -- write to, send parcels to -- these junior lamas? Friendships, even by post, could mean a great deal. We could work out a little scheme, if you are interested. The language barrier is there, but we can overcome it, with the help of friends.
Freda's family had, she recounted, already taken a young lama under their wing.Last year my son [Kabir] 'adopted' one small lama of 12, sent him a parcel of woollen (yellow)clothes, sweets and picture books, soap and cotton cloth. This time when I went to Buxa, Jayong gave me such an excited and dazzling smile. He was brimming over with joy at seeing me again! It is very quiet away from your own country and relations for a small lama with a LOT TO LEARN. It was of course most touching to see the 'Mother-Love' in the faces of the tutor-lamas and servant lamas who look after the young ones. They are very tender with them.
Freda's letter was included in Muriel's research group newsletter and subsequently reprinted by the Buddhist Society in London. This was the founding act of the Tibetan Friendship Group, which quickly established a presence in eight western countries and was the conduit by which modest private funds were raised for the refugees. It outlasted Freda and ... it helped give prominence to the Tibet issue as well as the well-being of the Tibetan diaspora.

Our Mission:
Mysore is the headquarters of the District where there are four large Tibetan settlements existing since the last four decades with nearly 30,000 Tibetans. From these colonies about 200 Tibetan students are studying in various colleges and other educational Institutions in the city of Mysore. A number of Tibetans from the nearby Tibetan Colonies put up their shops during weekends. As such there was a need to set up a Tibet Support Group organized for the benefit and for mutual understanding of the local as well as Tibetan communities.
Indo Tibetan Friendship Society was formed in August 2004. Since then we have conducted a number of useful programs like Human Rights awareness among the college students where world renowned Human Rights specialists addressed the students of different colleges. The students of these colleges were apprised of the deprivation of Human Rights in Tibet after China occupied the country. In addition, Tibetan Medicine camps where Indian patients were treated free of cost. Reciprocally Indian Dental Surgeons and Physicians conducted free medical check up and follow up treatment for the Tibetans in the various settlements.
On 7th August 2005 we organized a Seminar on World Peace where H. H Professor Shamdong Rinpoche, the Prime Minister of Tibetan Government in Exile, was the Chief Guest. Many eminent persons addressed the huge gathering of Indians and Tibetans. The program was widely covered in print and electronic Media. On 19th March 2006 ITFS Mysire observed its Anniversary inviting the Local M L A and the Superintendent of Police to address the gathering. Acharya from Tibetan School also spoke on the subject of Indo Tibetan relations. A 20-Minute Video Presentation was also put up depicting the Tibetan struggle and how China's occupation of Tibet affects the countries around in the South and South East Asia (The CD can be had on request) Now ITFS-Mysore has 48 members who are eminent in their own walk of life. We have plans to conduct awareness camp for the journalists and media persons on Tibetan situation and how it affects India and other countries.

Created after a rally in front of Chinese embassy, on 10th of March, 2000, which gathered more than 100 people.
Completes the activities of Polish Associations of Friends of Tibet, (in Poland since 10 years ago), but the difference is that we cooperate with other support groups in Europe (chiefly, French-speaking).
I'm for a moment in Switzerland, and coordinate, as a President of PMFT, actions from here.
Our future actions include: Tibetan day on 1th of December, and will try to organise again a rally on 10th Dec. in front of Chinese embassy.
We need Tibetan flags, if you can supply.
Thanks.
