He's not the real Dalai Lama he only claimed to be so stupid people in America that don't know what Buddhism means will help him get Tibet back, so he can rule it as a dictator again and put people to death by cutting their eyes out.
You will need to provide some links if you are to be believed.
By no means am I an expert in Buddhism, but from what I've learned, they have a long tradition of trying to find the previous one (who died) by examining children born around the time of his death.
The kids who end up being chosen are just that, chosen by others. And I seriously doubt they are chosen based on some expressed desire to be a dictator.
Also, I really don't see how "America" is helping him get Tibet "back." Seems to me that the United States of America is more like the Chinese; invade with lots of money-seeking corporations and people, upset the balance of the economy by making everything so darned expensive, put lots of money in the pockets of the already rich, and treat the people who have lived there for umpteen years with little respect.
Of course this is remarkably odd to me; since the Chinese resented being invaded so much by the Mongols they built the only man-made structure visible from space, the so-called Great Wall of China.
Perhaps the Dalai Lama believes the Mongols died and were reincarnated as Chinese? ;-)
But in any case, this most recent Dalai Lama, to the best of my knowledge, has killed no one.
However, you are still welcome to explain to us "what Buddhism means." I am interested in hearing your perspective.
