...[S]implistically and some thing of an exaggeration in order to make a larger point. That is to say that we are dealing with a period in which the Tibetans are sort of like the Arabs come in to formation, and what I mean by that is that the Arab Empire forms when you have a small group that explodes out of the Arabian Peninsula and when the smoke and dust clears, everyone from the Atlantic to the Fertile Crescent is an Arab.    Now in terms of time and all that, this is a simplification but, you have a small group explode out of the South Central Tibet, over runs the plateau, even beyond the plateau. So when the smoke and dust clears every one from Kashmir to the shore of Kokonor [Tso Ngonpo/Qinghai Lake] everybody is descended from a monkey Bodhisattva and a rock ogress.
