Abstract

The article discusses the confirmation by the 14th Dalai Lama that the institution of the Dalai Lama will continue after his death, with the Gaden Phodrang Trust holding the exclusive authority to identify his successor. This announcement comes amid geopolitical tensions involving India, the US, and China, particularly regarding the process of selecting the next Dalai Lama, which China claims must be approved by its government. The article highlights the complexities of the selection process, which traditionally involves identifying a child reincarnation in Tibet, and notes the historical context of the Dalai Lama's political role and the ongoing situation in Tibet since Chinese control began in the 1950s.
