发帖数: 689 | 1 HONG KONG (Reuters) - A Tibetan youth named by Beijing as the 11th Panchen
Lama but reviled by many Tibetans as a fake made his first trip outside
mainland China on Thursday as he is groomed to become the spiritual leader
of Tibetan Buddhism after the Dalai Lama dies.
Gyaltsen Norbu, 22, was selected as a boy by officially atheist Beijing in
1995 as the second-highest figure in Tibetan Buddhism in its drive to win
the hearts and minds of Tibetans.
Tibet's current spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, had announced his own
choice of a six-year-old boy, who was taken away by authorities and has
since disappeared from public view, creating a crisis of legitimacy for
devout Tibetans.
