On the statement of Gyaltsen Norbu, widely recognised by Tibetans as the Chinese-appointed Panchen Lama, that the recognition of the Dalai Lama and Panchen Lama must adhere to Chinese law, Tibetan Youth Congress President, Tsering Chomphel, said, "We were totally against his statement... It is totally against religious freedom in Tibet. And we Tibetans have our own religious traditions and methods for reincarnating the Lamas... The Chinese government is trying to politicise the tradition of reincarnation...", Member of the Tibetan parliament in exile, Lhagyari Namgyal Dolkar, said, "It was expected from him. He is someone who's been appointed by the Chinese government. So he is supposed to follow the protocol. However, the truth remains that his statement has no religious authority nor any political or historical legitimacy. Hence, it will not be accepted by any Tibetan Buddhist or Buddhists around the world... However, the statements that he's made are expected by the Chinese leadership... He shall decide the authority regarding the reincarnation of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. And we have heard on multiple records of what His Holiness wants. It will be entirely his own decision, nobody else, especially no one who has any link with the Chinese government whatsoever... #PanchenLama #DalaiLama #Tibet #TibetanBuddhism #ReligiousFreedom #ChinaTibetConflict #TseringChomphel #LhagyariNamgyalDolkar #TibetExileParliament #TibetanLeaders #ChinaInterference #DalaiLamaReincarnation Join ANI's YouTube membership to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtFQDgA8J8_iiwc5-KoAQlg/join Subscribe now and press the bell icon 🔔 to get new video updates: https://bit.ly/2UV4ygi -------------------------------------- ANI is South Asia's leading Multimedia News Agency providing content for every information platform, including TV, Internet, broadband, newspapers, and mobiles.
