July 4, 2010 | Reincarnation of fifth Living Buddha Dezhub selected in Tibet |
Lhasa (Tibet): Reincarnation of the fifth Living Buddha Dezhub
was chosen following a lot-drawing ceremony here. Losang Doje was selected as
the reincarnation in accordance with a regulation on reincarnation of living Buddha
of Tibetan Buddhism, and with historical conventions and religious rituals. Two
slips bearing the names of the two candidates were separately sealed in silk bags
and put in a golden urn after being carefully examined by government representatives,
senior monks and family members of the candidates, Xinhua reports. Buddhist Association
of China Vice-President, Bainqen Erdini Qoigyijabu, took a silk bag out of the
urn, which confirmed Losang was the reincarnated boy. Losang was born on November
30, 2005 in Lhunze County of Shannan Prefecture. He was chosen as one of the candidates
after several years of searching efforts by senior monks according to religious
practices and traditions. The boy would become the sixth Living Buddha Dezhub
after the approval of the People’s Government of the Tibet Autonomous Region. |
