I assume you don’t believe in Buddhism, but if you do it makes sense. The Dalai Lama is the reincarnation of an enlightened being. Its like if jesus would have come back all the time instead of just once for a few days. (It’s not exactly like that and I’m not Buddhist)
That’s really interesting. But ok I don’t want to insult anyone, but wasn’t Siddhartha Gautama only one of many many enlightened ones? And do you know if he didn’t endorse the entire bhavacakra or just the Bodhisattva?
You can call it a cope but the writing is on the wall for them: the Dalai Lama either exists outside of China in the next generation or there is no next generation as the dictatorship exerts full control over them.
It’s over for them. Their temples have been torn down, their faith has become a political tool.
it’s cool that he can know these things
Actually, anyone can make up stuff as much as they like.
Yes, but it’s the fanbase that matters.

If you actually read the words of the Buddha on reincarnation he was quite explicitly clear that he never endorsed the idea.
