A powerful display of free will: When Tibetan monks are imprisoned by the Chinese and tortured they still continue to meditate and recite their mantras using malas which they make in prison... Even when the Chinese cut off their thumbs so that they can't use their malas, they still continue to recite their mantras silently in their heads. This is a poignant and profound display of our free will...

Free will is the most precious thing we have as human beings.

Much Peace and Compassion
