Abstract

The article examines the relationship between exiled Tibetans and Indians. The source comes from documents by refugees and Tibetan and Indian officials. The research is also based primarily on interviews with Tibetans in exile in various northern Indian towns, cities and settlements, as well as public discourse and the media. Topics include citizenship, national and cultural boundaries, and Tibetan Buddhist philosophy in regard to the Tibetans' attitudes towards suffering and other social problems.
