The Dalai Lama hopes that India news is expected to be ahead of 130 after declaring the plan of rebirth

A few days after the announcement that he intends to rebirth after his death, the Dalai Lama said that he expects to be ahead of the age of 130, as thousands of followers gathered to pray before their 90th birthday in Dharamshala, India.The Dalai Lama said on Saturday during a long life ceremony organized by his followers on Saturday, “I am able to serve the creatures of Buddhism and Tibet, and I expect to live for more than 130 years.”The Tibetan spiritual leader, who fled to India after a failed rebellion against the Chinese rule in 1959, has ever been in exile in Dharamshala. He has led efforts to keep the cause of Tibetan alive and push for autonomy under the rule of Beijing.On Wednesday, the Dalai Lama made global headlines by reviving a centuries -old tradition, confirming his intention of rebirth, which allows Tibetan spiritual head to choose the body in which he returns. His announcement ended the speculation of years, when earlier comments suggested that he could be final for holding the title.The Dalai Lama emphasized that his successor would be found according to traditional Buddhist procedures and will oversee his own office, a statement seen as a direct message for Beijing, which claimed that it holds the only right to approve the next Dalai Lama.Tibetan Buddhist Funts Tsinger, located in Dharmashala, said that the comments were to combat China’s efforts to intervene in the succession process. “What he is trying to do indicates to China that he should not pay attention to the rebirth process,” Tursing said.Meanwhile, the ceremony is going on in Dharamashala, the houses of over 20,000 deported Tibetans, as the preparations for the Dalai Lama’s birthday on Sunday have intensified. The huge posters and billboards have been put throughout the city, which is expected to participate with followers and Buddhist leaders from all over the world.Barbara Webel, an American citizen and a long -time follower of Buddhism, said, “I want this long life ceremony to keep him alive as long as possible … I had to stay here for it.”
