Because the Dalai Lama is spiritual and highest leader of Tibet and He is the reincarnation of Lord Buddha as well as called Him as 'Living Buddha'. Now who will decide the next Dalai Lama? CPC?
dalai lama is not the highest leader of Tibet. he is one of the two living buddhas of Tibetan buddhism's yellow hat sect, which account for 40% of tibetan population.
The institution of the dalai lama and the reincarnation was established by the central government to effectively govern and regulate tibet. No reincarnation of dalai lama is legitimate one until the central government approve it. From Dailai Lama I to today's Dalai lama 14, there is no exception in the 7 hundred years tradition.
Dailai lama is obligated to be loyal to the central government. the government has the right to deprive a dalai lama's title and find a substitute in case of need. Historically, a dalai lama was deprived of his title for the cause of treachery, and died in captivity.
As a buddhist in myself, i think the government has shown the enough clemency and patient on him. its time for the govt to take the further action to end his farce.
the word of central government rules! all the others are nosense
What is your problem? This is Tibetans' internal matter. And Tibetans are not indians neither by ethnicity nor by national identity. Don't poke your nose in others' internal affair...
THE VERY BASIC FACT THAT Buddism arose in and around ancient Magadha, India (modern Bihar) and present dalai lama is staying as a refuge in India make it an indian affair.
Its the same way Nazis claimed half of the world!!! In that way India can claim the lands from Myanmar to Afghanistan! But thats not the truth. If anyone do that it will be called as occupation. You have to get rid of middle age mindset.
Kinetic,
The truth is traditionally Dalai Lama can't simply be "chosen" by the current living Lama, he can't just point to a child and then say "he'll be the next one". There are strict rules on how the next Dalai Lama reincarnation is chosen, I'm not going to bore you with the excess details but a simply wiki search will you some good details, in essence the current Dalai Lama has to pass away first and then his fellow lamas will look for his reincarnation and it takes at least a few years for them to do so, and as always since the Qing dynasty (or even before that?) after the next Dalai Lama is chosen his name will be passed to the ruling chinese emperor for official approval/blessing, it is merely a formality (like in the UK when they elect the PM he/she will need to be approved by the Queen), but still the notion of the current Dalai goes around and tell who will be the next Dalai Lama is a bit absurd to the Tibetan rules.
Any ways, the choosing of Dalai itself has been historically full of controversies, in the past the title was deliberately given to a noble mongol so Tibet would be safe from their invasions etc etc, it's a messy political business and not always as "holy" as you and I think.
No need to talk about next Dalai Lama? Who will decide the next Dalai Lama? CPC in Beijing? lol
!
Communist,
I understand your emotions, but we should look forward and think about how to resolve these historical disputes peacefully to both sides' benefits. Overwhelming majority of India people are friendly and peaceful, they want exactly what we want -- a better life and stronger home country, I think the two governments should engage in more talks and trades so we all can benefit from it going forward. I still hope that south tibet issue can be resolved peacefully eventually.
I just hope in the mean time our indian counterparts here can show some sensitivity to this border dispute and don't just use "communism", "brain wash", "democracy" etc to explain the current Tibet or even Taiwan issues etc, I've even heard claims of Hong Kong not being part of China etc, that's the first time I've ever heard this anywhere don't even know how it came about lol... The truth is even if China is not a communist by name country, the Chinese people will still dispute South Tibet with India, I don't expect us reach an agreement here but at least try not to start another meaningless "war of words".
CPC occupy Tibet and others should not have any problem! I see living in China under CPC you even forgot to think about what happenings surrounding you!! Thats the worst thing. Tibet is as related to India just like it is related to China.
