Under a typical New England weather that switched from a pleasant evening to sprinkles and back to a dry evening, local Tibetans gathered in Harvard Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts this past Wednesday to mourn the victims of the recent earthquake in China and Tibet.
Tibetans have held daily candlelight vigils till the 49th day and continue to hold weekly protest vigils every Wednesday with prayers. But this day and the previous one was different. No banners, no posters and no anti-Chinese Communist Government slogans.
“We haven’t stopped our vigils and protests against the Chinese government at all but out of respect for the thousands that died in China and Tibet, and as requested by the Tibetan Government in Exile, we use this vigil to mourn China’s tragedy,” explained Dhondup Phunkhang, one of the main organizers of the vigil to the 80 some Tibetans gathered.
