Dalai Lama not ‘all that’ for younger Tibetan Buddhists

Many object to his acceptance of a middle way as an acceptable form for Tibet’s future.

Without forsaking nonviolence, younger Tibetan Buddhist monks want full independence for Tibet, not autonomy. Well, that ain’t gonna happen.

And, given the definition of how one becomes the Dalai Lama, he can’t appoint a successor in advance, either.
