I thought the Dalai Lama said the he would not reincarnate.

Obviously because he know chinese influence would institute someone who supports Chinese control as the next Dalai lama.

    Yeah, then Beijing anointed some random to be the next one iirc, and he's not recognized officially. I'm guessing that's this dude.

    China baaically kidnapped the Pachen Lama. No one has seen him for years. He is either replaced or brainwashed....either way, the Pachen names tha Dalai. So basically China is pucking a Dalai lama that will support China over Tibet.
