PETITION SUPPORTING THE INCLUSION OF HIS HOLINESS, THE DALAI LAMA AT THE MILLENNIUM PEACE SUMMIT OF WORLD SPIRITUAL LEADERS AT THE UNITED NATIONS

We, the Undersigned, strongly protest the exclusion of His Holiness, the Dalai Lama, from the Millennium Peace Summit of Spiritual leaders being held at the UN from August 28th-31st. The ones primarily responsible for this Summit (UN Secretary General Kofi Annan and Bawa Jain)could choose at this time to find the moral courage to stand up against Chinese pressure and inducements; they should reverse their earlier decision and invite His Holiness -one of the most revered spiritual leaders on the planet as well as a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate – to this gathering for peace of spiritual and religious leaders.
