1 The 1914 treaty agreement between British India, China, and Tibet, setting the eastern boundaries of Lhasa Tibet, was never ratified by the Chinese. Yet, despite the fact that China reckoned Ch'ing-hai and Hsi-k'ang as two of her own provinces, the Chinese Communist government could, and did, claim liberation of Tibet when the Chinese troops marched into Hsi-k'ang.

7 In view of the frequent discussion about differences between “Asiatic” and “Western” minds, it is not inappropriate to mention Dr.Tucci's, Giuseppe “Teoria e pratica del mandala con particolare riguardo alia moderna psicologia del profondo”, Psiche e consienza, Vol. 12 (1949)Google Scholar. In this intriguing article, Dr. Tucci examines one of the most esoteric aspects of Tibetan religion, i.e., its cosmology and the methods employed to achieve “oneness” with the universe, in terms of the Jungian school of psychology.
