Dalai Lama Successor: The next pick can be born outside China – but can it be a woman? , Bharat News

Where do the Dalai Lama come from?
The Tibetan Buddhists feel that, as it has been 14 times since the establishment of the institution in 1587, the Dalai Lama has the ability to choose the body in which it takes rebirth. His successor will be born outside China, as he already said.In a religious gathering of Buddhist monks at Dharamshala, the Dalai Lama gave a message that was aired on television, underlining his succession plan. He claimed that the spiritual leader and a non-profit organization established in 2015 to manage matters related to the Dalai Lama Institute can only recognize and accept their rebirth.He said that the discovery of the future Dalai Lama “should be” done as per previous tradition and that “someone else has no such right to interfere in this matter.”Officials said in a press conference today that the nationality of the Dalai Lama’s successor should not be limited to Tibet.There are now 14 Dalai Lama, most of which are from Tibet, which has been ruled by China since 1950. Born in Tatsar in Northeast Tibet, the current Dalai Lama was recognized as a rebirth at the age of two. When the current Dalai Lama was discovered as the rebirth of its predecessor, he was just two years old. He was born in 1935 as Lamo Dhondup in a farming family.
Although this is unusual, the Dalai Lamas are often chosen beyond the Tibetan motherland. The fourth and sixth Dalai Lamas have been selected from outside the area so far.The fourth Dalai Lama, Yontan Gyato was born in 1589 in Mongolia, while the sixth, Tsangyang Gyato, was born in 1682 in the Mon Tawang region of modern Arunachal Pradesh, India.In 1940, Tenzin Gyato became the fourteenth rebirth of the Dalai Lama. Chinese troops left Tibet in 1959 after revolting in the Tibetan capital Lhasa. Since then, he has been living in the Indian city of Dharamshala, where it has been detecting the world to promote Tibetan autonomy and help in establishing a democratic government.
Can a woman be a Dalai Lama?
‘If a woman comes to the Dalai Lama, she should be more attractive. , These were the words of the Dalai Lama when he was asked a reporter in 2019 whether a woman could be her successor. This was not the first time he made such a statement. A BBC article in 2015 said, “They confirmed their faith that the beauty matters as much as the mind.” If a woman comes to the Dalai Lama, she should be more attractive, “she told me laughing. ,Later, a statement was issued on the Dalai Lama’s website, stating that he had no crime and ‘deep sorry’ to hurt emotions is ‘unqualified.’In the Tibetan community, however, there is no internal reason that the future Dalai Lama cannot be a woman. In response to a question on the possibility of a woman Dalai Lama in the future, the Dalai Lama told the audience at IIT-Bombay in 2018 that “Buddha has given equal rights to both sexes and that both Tibetan and Indian are also the highest coordination.”
