このコンテンツについて
Dalai Lama’s 90th birthday has triggered waves of global celebration and sharp political maneuvering worthy of international headline attention. A star-studded ceremony in Dharamshala drew thousands of devotees in early August as reported by BBC News India, with spiritual blessings delivered directly by His Holiness, underscoring his enduring moral influence and fanning renewed waves of compassion and global respect among followers and admirers alike. On August 9 in London, the International Council of Jurists honored the Dalai Lama with the prestigious International Peace Prize in recognition of his lifelong commitment to non-violence and global harmony; he shared the spotlight with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai and Jain Acharya Dr Lokesh Muni at the high-profile “International March for Nuclear Disarmament and a Peaceful World” event, marking the 80th anniversary of Nagasaki’s atomic bombing. Dr Adish C Aggarwala, President of ICJ, emphasized that these laureates symbolize humanity’s best hope for peace.
Significant public appearances have rippled across the Tibetan exile community and international supporters. The Dalai Lama led multi-faith gatherings in Ladakh, blessing faithful of all backgrounds, as highlighted on Instagram, and the Victorian Parliament in Melbourne hosted a formal event to mark his milestone birthday—a testament to enduring diplomatic ties and deep moral appreciation overseas.
Yet with jubilation came fresh tension. According to WORLD magazine on August 14, Chinese officials have reasserted that they, not the Dalai Lama’s nonprofit, will designate his successor, issuing a forceful reminder that Beijing claims final say in reincarnation matters—a move widely seen as an effort to assert control over Tibetan Buddhism and push back against Tibetan demands for autonomy. These declarations shadowed strict security crackdowns in Tibet itself during exile birthday celebrations, with mass detentions and heightened surveillance, as documented by Tibet.net. Human rights organizations and TibetanReview.net report China’s prolonged silence after the disappearance of a prominent lama from Kirti Monastery, amplifying fears of escalating religious repression under Beijing’s push to “Sinicize” Buddhism.
Social media overflowed with heartfelt tributes: BBC News India’s footage captured thousands honoring his legacy in the Himalayas, while Instagram posts from devotees in Leh showcased the Dalai Lama blessing monks and laypeople alike. The outpouring mirrors biographical significance: even as Beijing seeks to manipulate his succession, the Dalai Lama’s influence continues to transcend borders, inspire peace movements, and spotlight the volatile, unresolved standoff between Tibet’s spiritual vision and Chinese state power. There are no credible reports of business activity related to the Dalai Lama in this period; speculation about a secret succession plan persists, but his own statements remain that a personally appointed organization will identify any future reincarnation. Overall, the past week has cemented the Dalai Lama’s enduring role as a global icon of peace, compassion, and the complex politics swirling around Tibetan identity.
