Light a candle 4 Tibet!

Our Vision
Our Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games.
We will light a candle for Tibet because Tibet has become a symbol of freedom. It
is a symbol that represents the natural right of any human being for self
determination, freedom of thought, conscience, belief and religion. The Olympic
Games in Beijing are a unique opportunity to focus the world's attention on the
annulment of those rights in Tibet and in many other places in the world. Lighting
a candle represents solidarity with the people of Tibet.

Each candle lit window is one more prayer of hope for the world to witness.

This will be our opening ceremony for the Olympic Games. And it will begin
darkness falls in India on Thursday, Aug 7th 2008.

In this way we will ensure that our millions and millions of candles are seen and
noticed throughout all the time zones of the world.

We will start in India and neighboring countries, moving on to Russia and the
Middle East and continuing throughout Europe and Africa. A few hours later we
will reach the eastern coast of North, South and Central America and spread
across the Americas. Our friends in Australia, Japan and the Far East will light
their candles when the official ceremony begins.
