Dalai Lama Celebrates 90th Birthday: Aims to Live to 130 and Control His Reincarnation!
The Dalai Lama has just stepped into his ninth decade of life, but he’s not planning to stop anytime soon! At a ceremony in Dharamshala, where he has lived in exile since 1959, the Tibetan spiritual leader announced he hopes to live to the ripe old age of 130! Yes, you read that right – 130 years! While most of us barely make it to 70, the Dalai Lama plans to live another four decades.
But that’s not all. While Beijing continues to label the Dalai Lama a separatist and insists that Chinese leaders must approve his successor, the Dalai Lama has made it crystal clear that his reincarnation will be decided freely, without outside interference. His institution, the Gaden Phodrang Trust, is the only authority that can recognize his next incarnation.
This statement is a bombshell in the worlds of politics and religion! The Chinese government demands control, but the Dalai Lama refuses to bow down. He told his followers that the question of his legacy will not depend on external factors but solely on his organization.
Known for his dedication to the teachings of Buddha’s dharma and serving all beings, the Dalai Lama, now 90, seems ready to continue his mission for a long, long time. His wish to live to 130 is not just a personal ambition but a symbol of his determination to keep leading his followers and spreading his teachings.
In a world where centuries of life are rarely measured and political tensions rise, the Dalai Lama remains unshaken. Will he make it to 130? Will his institution maintain control over his reincarnation? One thing’s for sure – this story is just getting started!
If you’ve got thoughts on whether the Dalai Lama is on track to become the oldest person on the planet or think this is just another spiritual fairy tale, feel free to drop a comment. Who knows, maybe you hold the key to the eternal mystery of reincarnation and longevity!
Remember – life’s short, but the Dalai Lama plans to stretch it to 130 years!
