Tibet Succession: China Rattled By Dalai Lama’s Statement – What Did He Say? | World News

New Delhi: Port-au-Prince silence. Lhasa Expectation. Beijing Fury. A question started a storm: Who will be the next Dalai Lama?

Tibetan’s spiritual leader spoke. His words confused a Hornet’s nest in China. During an recent address, Dalai clarified his intentions. No government decides who has achieved it. No political hand can direct the future of the lineage. His successor would be chosen by the priests. By Phodrang Trust. Old rituals have passed for centuries. Not by state dictators or foreign intervention.

This message silenced the speculation in the Tibetan community. They had lived with uncertainty for years. Will the 600 -year -old Dalai Lama institution continue? Does the reincarnation chain end with it? The spiritual leader ended doubt. The line will continue. The next Dalai Lama will be selected. Tradition will guide the search. Faith will shape the future.

China’s answer came quickly and sharply. Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning, Beijing journalists, the successor should be approved by China, he said.

He threw policies from the Qing Dynasty period. At that time, the best religious appointments needed imperial consent. Beijing, this precedent is still standing. Without China’s approval, it cannot be a legitimate spiritual authority, especially in Tibet.

Mao Ning added that China respects religious freedom, but only within the borders of the state. Emphasized the need for arrangement. He said that religious issues should be under state control. This position conflict with Dalai Lama directly. He certainly ignored the government’s intervention. No regime, no politicians, no party. Just Buddhist road.

Gaden Phodrang Trust in Dharamshala confirmed that Dalai Lama has not yet given written instructions. Samdhong Rinpoche, a safe senior person, made clarity. Successor can be a man or woman. Milliyet would not gain weight. Tibetan roots would not be necessary. Only spiritual merit guides the election.

This week, Dalai Lama is 90 years old. A new section appears when celebrating the world heritage. A section full of questions. Who finds the next Lama? Who accepts him? Will there be one or two plaintiffs? Conflict is no longer spiritual. Political and global.

China wants control. Tibet wants continuity. And the Earth is watching the shadow of the future as it reaches along the Lhasa Mountains and Beijing corridors.
