IN MEMORY OF JIGME NORBU

Tibetans and supporters in New York City held a prayer session Tuesday to mourn and pay respects to late Jigme Norbu, nephew to His Holiness the Dalai Lama and son of late Taktser Rinpoche. The prayer was organized by the New York and New Jersey chapter of the Tibetan Youth Congress, the largest Tibetan NGO that seeks complete independence for Tibet.

Jigme Norbu, like his late father, was a staunch supporter of complete independence for Tibet and had carried out several walks and rallies to garner support for Tibet and create awareness about Tibet's independence.

Meanwhile, Tibetans in the greater Boston area also held a prayer session at the Kurukulla center Wednesday.

An eerie silence was experienced in the room as Ngawang Norbu, a current board of directors of the Tibetan Association of Boston, (TAB) explained the unfortunate incident involving Jigme la. Jigme la was struck by a moving SUV, which killed him instantaneously on the first day of his 300 mile walk in raising awareness about the Tibetan issue.

We have lost another son of Tibet who consistently campaigned for peace and an independent Tibet, said Ngawang. Jigme along with other activists has tirelessly organized several walks and bike tours around the world. Jigme was a true believer in Tibet's independence and has continuously spread the message of the illegal occupation of Tibet and world peace.

There is a lesson to be learnt for all of us to cherish and to recognize the achievements of individuals within their lifetime and not to let a tragedy bring out ones praises for another. Let us uphold the torch and to move forward the momentum that Jigme has created for today is the moment and tomorrow maybe too late," the TAB said.
