His point is well taken, but we should bear in mind that many people believe that the Buddha does reincarnate as other avatars of the same realization, but that realization is not necessarily expressed in the language of Buddhism.

OMIGOD ✨ his holiness never disregard history of tibet－truly admirable. mainland china kingdom appointed/gave the title of lamas, not the monks themselves. he's right! there will always be political situation regarding spiritual leader in tibet. so when he said something along the line of "institution isn't important, the teaching is", it's very very touching even though i'm not a buddhist. he's very rational and open minded ✨🥺
Abhisek, Why so pessimistic? His quality of men have always existed & always have alongside the ignorant & hateful who have also always been here. Think how many silent Buddhas there are in the world. There will always be someone to point to light & wisdom, no one who wants a teacher is denied one; try not to place all the world in one man's hands. It makes you hopeless that one day he will die. We wont be alone & without hope even on that day. Just stick to the simple things the Buddha taught - sila, Anapanasati, & vipassana and everything will be alright. ❤️
reality, he is telling truth and fool don't understanding that Dalai lama is creation of some people to only save their religion country. Dalai lama politic establishment. when Buddhism wasn't in Tibet there was no concept of Dalai lama in Nepal and India root of Buddhism but later this concept was adopted how the Newari people never believe in it who are Shakya clan. many times, Dalai lama said like this, but Tibetan will never understand and this against buddha teaching where you can't attach to something if you then will not free from life circle
I also really love HH the Dalai Lama. 🙏 For my spiritual path I have also been really enjoying lots of Sri Avinash recently. #SriAvinashDoTV 🙏 His meditation talks have helped me to feel much more calm.
Just pointing out: The building that you show in the video as "The Dalai Lama's main temple" is actually not correct. That is a picture of Gyuto Tantric Monastery which is not even in McLeod Ganj but in Siddhbari. I think a mistake like that, small as it might be, shows a lack of seriousness which can be complicated specially in this age of "fake news".
HH is not against anyone. That’s why he questions everything. He respect every person and their ideology. At last dharma is more important to monk than the temples and design
Big slap to those Buddhist institutions who declare their son , heir as reincarnation just like a king dynasty. Reincarnation should be convincing, and child should validate rather than parents appointing them as one .
Must understand high yoga tantra and buddhist tantrayana for such concepts, otherwise we can be misled by our own understandings, misconceptions, presumptions and conditionings/conformities 🙏🏼
It is not important...whether is you ate a recognized reincarnation or you are born in a lineage...the point is to maintain vibid buda Sakua discoveries and hence teachings
How odd that HH said that no buddha has reincarnated when Shakyamuni Buddha told his disciples before dying that he would reincarnate in eight year’s time, which he did when he manifested as Guru Rinpoche ( also known as Padmasambhava), who was later crucial in establishing Buddhism in Tibet.
He's right about the feudal system in Tibet. I believe in reincarnation, but I also know it was used in Tibet as a way to ensure wealth and power remained in certain institutions where monks and lamas were (officially) celibate. When the Chinese first invaded, a decade before the persecution and mass murder began, the Dalai Lama was actually interested in communism as a way to reform the corrupt, grossly unequal system of massive landholdings by a handful of families and rich institutions, while most of the population lived in medieval poverty.
I think Buddhas reincarnation will happen until he is at peace, which means he’ll reincarnate until there is peace. Aee it doesn’t matter that people remember you reincarnation, I half agree with what you’re saying sir. But like you’re saying it is not the institution that matters during reincarnation, it is the message, therefore the message is the souls goal. That’s I say the Buddha will reincarnate until there is peace, that is his souls goal.
. @dylan foley The problem with your argument is your misunderstanding of the idea behind the mindset of karma. In order to attain enlightenment one must escape reincarnation by understanding the mindset of karma you cannot become a bodhsattva or an arhat without escaping reincarnation. What do you actually believe reincarnation is?
. @dylan foley Asking questions is not foolish. Maya is not 'the material world' maya is as they say 'illusion by convention', it is the root of the word 'to measure' and the word 'matrix'. Maya is the belief that the way in which the world is described i.e by words, numbers etc is *the actual world* (which of course we both know it isn't). But that isn't to say there is no material world - obviously there is. We just mustn't cling to the illusion of how the world is perceived. in order to be a bodhisattva you must escape reincarnation through realising karma.
dylan foley that is the goal of a bodhisattva, who vows to stay in samsara to help other sentient beings to attain enlightenment, bodhisattvas aren’t full Buddha’s so they are reborn but they can choose whatever location they want. All Buddhas DO NOT get reborn. I hope this clarifies the matter :)
He’s a Gelugpa, so he pushes the monastic tradition and institutions. The other 3 schools of Tibetan Buddhism also value this , but there is a yogic tradition the other 3 represent that they value equally. It’s for different people. The other schools say” if you want to find the true masters , stay away from the monasteries “.
This is one of the reasons I agree with Gelug school more. I believe it is closer to the original form of Buddhism, and the original scriptures. Almost every Sutra, wether it's Theravada or Mahayana, promotes monastics as very important. All early forms of Buddhism and most later forms all focus heavily on monastics, and one of the roles of lay people is to support these monastics exactly like scripture advises. I don't agree with that last saying, but I understand the point of view of the other schools.
Here Dalai Lama says that a Buddha never reincarnates. Something that Osho always was saying. According to Osho to reincarnate you must not be fully Enlightened. Or you keep some desire to help people so you come back. But after one point it is impossible to identify with this life because you see clearly that it is an illusion.
Meaning to say Drepung is a reincarnation of Nalanda institution where all the precious dharma have been originally born but now developed to serve our modern world. Just like HHDL who is the Lord Buddha himself
Just want to point out for your right to know, these words come from a man whose title is passed on literally by finding the next reincarnation of himself as a newborn baby.
As a Buddhist convert myself, I agree. We also believe he is a deity called Avalokitesvara in human form. HH the Dalai Lama doesn't want to admit this as he knows he has secular audiences who will laugh and ridicule him if he said he is Avalokitesvara. So he doesn't say it, real Tibetan Buddhists know this, only the misguided ones believe he is just a normal human.
His message here simply is don't idolize spiritual leaders and says the goal of the Tibetans will be achieved whether the Dalai Lama is there or not because the wisdom of the monks is guarded jealously by various institutions.
There is a commitment of the bodhisattva...in which the return wil be to help sentient beings until every one is in illumination, then there is no return.
Buddhists believe in rebirth not reincarmation. Like HHDL, the consciousness of all the past Buddhas and Bodhistattvas are constantly evolving to serve all sentient beings.
Rebirth is the continuation of the absence of a soul even a universal one. Reincarnation,however is the presence of a soul which cannot evolve as what the consciousness can do. The consciousness is dynamic, devoid of a self as what Buddhists believe in the theory of no self or the Mahayana teachings of 'emptiness'. As what HHDL said, his life as the 14th is his business, he cannot speak for the 15th even the consciousness is same. If Buddhist believes in reincarnation, his Holiness would have been more explicit in his explanation of his continuation as a Bodhisattva or Buddha. China will not be granted the authority over the 15th Dalai Lama as there is no Gelugpa institution there who is qualified enough to recognise the Dalai Lama.of Tibet.
brampton wicks i understand that in the full moon night, the buddha meditated to the extent that he saw his past lives. Is this merely a story or if not, does it indicate some continuity across lives?
@@penguin0101 Siddhidartha was on the path to his enlightenment as the historical Lord Buddha. Gaining the levels of ominisence which past Buddhas before him had achieved. The continuous evolving consciencness as illustrated in the Jataka stories up to enlightenment can only mean that a great human being walked among us 2,600 years ago and will continue to live on and evolve until we all reach enlightened. That's the great vow of a Bodhisattva

Some people questioned that if reincarnation is important, then why Buddha Shakyamuni has not reincarnated? My answer is Buddha Shakyamuni reincarnated in the form of a Spiritual Guide.
It’s through the Dharma that an individual can learn how to transcend reincarnation. I guess the Dalai is saying that a preoccupation with the next one, is an attachment that is probably not conducive to Nirvana.
No Mr. Dalai Lama, A king is not religious authority in Islamic State, he's only political authority within Islamic jurisprudence. Religious scholars - Qadhi, Mufti, grand Mufti, etc. hold/held religious authority
Unfortunately, many people read different books about reincarnation, which confuse the issue. In the Bhagavad-gita, chapter 2, verse 17 states: "Know that which pervades the entire body is indestructible. No one is able to destroy the imperishable soul." The living entity is not the body. We are not seeing each other. We are only seeing the bodies. You must understand that we are not the body. The body is like a machine that we are temporarily using. This is not a belief. We are talking about the highest science here. Krishna also explains in the Bhagavad-gita how a person within one life migrates from a baby body to an adult body and then to an old body. The cells have changed in the body. You are not the brain either. Understanding that I am not the body is the first basic understanding in spiritual life. You are the spirit soul, who is going from one body to the next. What does the mind have to do with this? In the Bhagavad-gita, chapter 15, verses 8 & 9 state: "The living entity in the material world carries his different conceptions of life from one body to another as the air carries aromas. The living entity, thus taking another gross body, obtains a certain type of ear, tongue, and nose and sense of touch, which are grouped about the mind. He thus enjoys a particular set of sense objects." If you still have desire for material sense enjoyment, then nature provides you with another set of senses. A new material body is developed from the subtle material body. You will find innumerable living entities. They also have tongues, ears and eyes. These are spirit souls, parts and parcels of God, just as much as we are. It is by the arrangement of nature that we get a certain type of body to carry out the particular desires that a person has. Each of us is enjoying different foods according to different tastes. If our mentality in this life is shaped like that of an animal, then we will take on an animal body in the next life. If one neglects the facility for self-realization in the human form of life, then one will not receive another human of life. What we do now with our gross physical body affects our mind, our subtle material body.
Je Tsongkhapa was the reincarnation of the Buddha and he set up the Gelug school and was a teacher of the 1st Dalai Lama. That Tenzin can't refer to this really suggests he is not the authentic Dalai Lama.
Look man you're living in middle ages , come to current age these all are not true, Buddha was a man who gave the truth according to his perspective maybe at that time he couldn't find any more convincing truth due to limited resources so he taught reincarnation , and the basic teaching of buddha what he told that -"My followers should not accept anything just because of faith they should rather do thorough investigation and experiment" And that is what dalai lama 14th is doing he is investigating the truth so he is completely right no such thing as reincarnation happens , there is no god, we are just born through comic fluke , and we should not do good deeds just because of fear but to make society a peaceful and better place.
why are you talking about a successor? he's still alive.. he is a holy man walking among us... his rebirth is guaranteed... and you don't have to worry about it at all
He did. One lifetime just wasn't enough to build so many people up to the full realization of a Buddha, or anyone to be precise, nor a big Sangha that would have supported Shakyamunis reincarnation in a way he would have liked to, after all he was a prince before being the Buddha of our time. Just because you cannot prove it did happen doesn't mean it didn't. Same for all masters. Do you think they are above the clouds in full bliss forever looking at us who have their feet on the ground? Most buddhist practitoners and even masters, however high their titles, are merely liberated and products of the teachings transmitted in the many lineages if Buddhism. Rare are those who make their own realization.
Reincarnation is not needed if one can reach enlightenment in one lifetime. It is only needed because it's very difficult to reach the final destination. Every time we come back, if we are awakened and conscious, we will continue our spiritual journey until we complete the full course. Unless and until we reach it, we will have to have to return back whether we like it or not. So, the more we make the effort to progress in every single incarnation, the less rebirths we will have to take. Sad to say, this master is not as enlightened as most people think. He has never say that he is fully enlightened. He maybe a very advanced seeker, but he is not a full master, yet.
Sadly, the great Nalanda was destroyed by Muslims as they raided India and, of course, they slaughtered the non-violent monks there unless they would convert to Islam. The damage they did to Dharma was somehting India never got back and Buddhism died there. Taxila the great center for Buddhist learning was similarly destroyed 5-6 centuries before, this time the raiders were the Huns. Of course, everyone knows what happened with China and Tibet - the same thing. Once again raided and invaded by outsiders who once again slaughtered the defensless monks. I suppose, that may bode well for non-violence or not, depending on your point of view. Is being defenseless and non-violent the right thing to do, if it it leads to the destruction of Dharma, thousands of texts - something that Buddhism will never get back and who knows what was on those texts in those three invasions? People may or may not know this, but NOTHING was written about the Buddha for at least 5 centuries after he died. Only (relatively) recently did we discover the Ganhara canon which revealed things about Buddhism no one ever knew. Who knows what was lost in those invasions. It's left to society and history to decide if the Buddhist not fighting back in these 3 invasions and slaughters was the right thing to do. Should they have fought back and sacrificed their morality and ehtics to preserve it? I know the answer, but I'm putting it out there for the rest of the world.
I’m here I was reincarnated I am the one and only Buddha I’m here I seen myself reborn at that I’m here I’m the living reincarnated Buddha I have plenty of proof I am Buddha and my parents named my middle name Buddha for a reason I am the Buddha I’m here I’m 35 years old
Something for life He can only remember the life before him for 7️⃣7 years. It is common to everyone. 8️⃣8 is 00 which is the end. Seven years later, there is no memory of reincarnation. Although she has merit, she has to live a long life. She has to say goodbye to an accident. In that sense, she owes a debt of gratitude for her lost life. If the lost person becomes a human being, reincarnation will take place. Everyone called reincarnation will have lost their life in an accident.
“If reincarnation is important then why didn’t Buddha reincarnate?”; 1) How do you know that Buddha didn’t reincarnate? 2) It is widely believed that Buddha attained spiritual enlightenment (nirvana), once a soul attains this the cycle of reincarnation is broken thus there is no need to reincarnate again. There I have answered your question
Must make distinction between reincarnation and rebirth, according to buddhism we are all reborn again and again in this cycle of existence, it depends on our actions(karma, good/bad) that we'll be reborn as humans or as any form or formless being. Reincarnated beings such as His holiness the 14th dalai lama or the 17th karmapa or Mingyur rinpoche, these beings have attained a certain level of insight into the complex system of mind awareness and its constructs which can only be achieved through wisdom of compassion and particular methods, They've vowed to be in existence till all sentient beings reach the same blissful state of buddhahood and they propound their knowledge about how to achieve such a state, so that human beings and others can know how to deal with sufferings of the mind while in existence and know how to eventually reach a state of true and complete bliss(buddhahood). I am sorry that you lost your brother, since you have a karmic connection to him, you will meet again, again and again, life after life, in any form, but you will no longer remember him or he will no longer remember you, such is our cycle of existence. Train in meditation and work for the sake of all sentient beings, unconditionally, unbiased, to lift them all out of suffering, love them as if they were your brother or mother, ultimately you may reach a stage where you will be able to recognise your brother and also recognise that all sentient beings were our mothers and fathers thousands and hundreds and millions of times, over and over in this cyclic existence, you will find no need to seek for him, for he never left, he can never leave existence, unless he practices the path to liberation or buddhahood, I may sound religious, apologies, but such is the nature of all existing phenomena. 🙏🏼 Hope I helped. Rest, just be kind and you'll be fine 👍🏼
@@hellboundtruck123 you are right. everyone is our relatives or friends in this samsara. But once you could break the illusion of this is us.

What is meditation?
hes so peaceful to listen to
Long live his holiness Dalai Lama 🙏🙏🙏
what a lovely message ! we need to reflect on what he is saying
His subtlety speaks volumes
"...but their teaching remains." Selah. ♡
Just pointing out: The building that you show in the video as "The Dalai Lama's main temple" is actually not correct. That is a picture of Gyuto Tantric Monastery which is not even in McLeod Ganj but in Siddhbari. I think a mistake like that, small as it might be, shows a lack of seriousness which can be complicated specially in this age of "fake news".
HH is not against anyone. That’s why he questions everything. He respect every person and their ideology. At last dharma is more important to monk than the temples and design

Your holiness 🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏
Big slap to those Buddhist institutions who declare their son , heir as reincarnation just like a king dynasty. Reincarnation should be convincing, and child should validate rather than parents appointing them as one .
Must understand high yoga tantra and buddhist tantrayana for such concepts, otherwise we can be misled by our own understandings, misconceptions, presumptions and conditionings/conformities 🙏🏼
It is not important...whether is you ate a recognized reincarnation or you are born in a lineage...the point is to maintain vibid buda Sakua discoveries and hence teachings
Wrong View
Why do i feel it's highly edited so might be edited the part what exactwas he saying?
How odd that HH said that no buddha has reincarnated when Shakyamuni Buddha told his disciples before dying that he would reincarnate in eight year’s time, which he did when he manifested as Guru Rinpoche ( also known as Padmasambhava), who was later crucial in establishing Buddhism in Tibet.
A Buddha cannot be reborn. Because a Buddha has destroyed Defilements which condition rebirth as a Deva, Gandhabba, Yakkha, or a human being.
LET'S WALK THE PATH OF BUDDHA
MAY ALL BEINGS BE FREE FROM SUFFERING 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Long Live His Holiness 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 💐💐💐
He's right about the feudal system in Tibet. I believe in reincarnation, but I also know it was used in Tibet as a way to ensure wealth and power remained in certain institutions where monks and lamas were (officially) celibate. When the Chinese first invaded, a decade before the persecution and mass murder began, the Dalai Lama was actually interested in communism as a way to reform the corrupt, grossly unequal system of massive landholdings by a handful of families and rich institutions, while most of the population lived in medieval poverty.
Reincarnation IS important thats why Avalokiteshwar reincarnated🙏
Hi Dalai Lama. Thank you for sharing this video. Love you♥️
I think Buddhas reincarnation will happen until he is at peace, which means he’ll reincarnate until there is peace. Aee it doesn’t matter that people remember you reincarnation, I half agree with what you’re saying sir. But like you’re saying it is not the institution that matters during reincarnation, it is the message, therefore the message is the souls goal. That’s I say the Buddha will reincarnate until there is peace, that is his souls goal.
Very well said
.
Well of course. The point of buddhism is to attain enlightenment and in doing so, escape reincarnation. thats BASIK
.
@dylan foley Actually yes. you disagree but your point does not conflict with what I wrote. The ultimate goal is to escape reincarnation.
.
@dylan foley The problem with your argument is your misunderstanding of the idea behind the mindset of karma. In order to attain enlightenment one must escape reincarnation by understanding the mindset of karma you cannot become a bodhsattva or an arhat without escaping reincarnation. What do you actually believe reincarnation is?
.
@dylan foley Okay. But can you explain what you mean by 'this reality' i'm very interested in what you mean by that
.
@dylan foley Asking questions is not foolish.
Maya is not 'the material world' maya is as they say 'illusion by convention', it is the root of the word 'to measure' and the word 'matrix'. Maya is the belief that the way in which the world is described i.e by words, numbers etc is *the actual world* (which of course we both know it isn't). But that isn't to say there is no material world - obviously there is. We just mustn't cling to the illusion of how the world is perceived.
in order to be a bodhisattva you must escape reincarnation through realising karma.
dylan foley that is the goal of a bodhisattva, who vows to stay in samsara to help other sentient beings to attain enlightenment, bodhisattvas aren’t full Buddha’s so they are reborn but they can choose whatever location they want. All Buddhas DO NOT get reborn. I hope this clarifies the matter :)
He’s a Gelugpa, so he pushes the monastic tradition and institutions. The other 3 schools of Tibetan Buddhism also value this , but there is a yogic tradition the other 3 represent that they value equally. It’s for different people. The other schools say” if you want to find the true masters , stay away from the monasteries “.
This is one of the reasons I agree with Gelug school more. I believe it is closer to the original form of Buddhism, and the original scriptures. Almost every Sutra, wether it's Theravada or Mahayana, promotes monastics as very important. All early forms of Buddhism and most later forms all focus heavily on monastics, and one of the roles of lay people is to support these monastics exactly like scripture advises. I don't agree with that last saying, but I understand the point of view of the other schools.
Here Dalai Lama says that a Buddha never reincarnates. Something that Osho always was saying. According to Osho to reincarnate you must not be fully Enlightened. Or you keep some desire to help people so you come back. But after one point it is impossible to identify with this life because you see clearly that it is an illusion.
Hands up everyone who felt the piano music was a good idea.
Long live His Holiness 🎉❤❤❤
Yes, agree with HH. The Buddha did say, the Buddha Dharma shall remain foremost. Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu
The best is yet to come
Meaning to say Drepung is a reincarnation of Nalanda institution where all the precious dharma have been originally born but now developed to serve our modern world. Just like HHDL who is the Lord Buddha himself
Like Nalanda, DREPUNG monastery has produced many great scholars. In pre 1950 it has as many as 7700+ monks.
Just want to point out for your right to know, these words come from a man whose title is passed on literally by finding the next reincarnation of himself as a newborn baby.
As a Buddhist convert myself, I agree. We also believe he is a deity called Avalokitesvara in human form. HH the Dalai Lama doesn't want to admit this as he knows he has secular audiences who will laugh and ridicule him if he said he is Avalokitesvara. So he doesn't say it, real Tibetan Buddhists know this, only the misguided ones believe he is just a normal human.
His message here simply is don't idolize spiritual leaders and says the goal of the Tibetans will be achieved whether the Dalai Lama is there or not because the wisdom of the monks is guarded jealously by various institutions.
Our Humble Holliness!!
I love this man!❤
He might be on another planet or in another universe.
There is a commitment of the bodhisattva...in which the return wil be to help sentient beings until every one is in illumination, then there is no return.
@@monucarubio good happy luck tread your comment again and trade tactics.
Buddha is the teacher
Dharma is the teaching , guide , solution
Sangha is the community , tools and support
Intelligence & Wisdom. Amazing mind this man
I love this man.
Buddhists believe in rebirth not reincarmation. Like HHDL, the consciousness of all the past Buddhas and Bodhistattvas are constantly evolving to serve all sentient beings.
brampton wicks whats the difference sir?
Rebirth is the continuation of the absence of a soul even a universal one. Reincarnation,however is the presence of a soul which cannot evolve as what the consciousness can do. The consciousness is dynamic, devoid of a self as what Buddhists believe in the theory of no self or the Mahayana teachings of 'emptiness'. As what HHDL said, his life as the 14th is his business, he cannot speak for the 15th even the consciousness is same. If Buddhist believes in reincarnation, his Holiness would have been more explicit in his explanation of his continuation as a Bodhisattva or Buddha. China will not be granted the authority over the 15th Dalai Lama as there is no Gelugpa institution there who is qualified enough to recognise the Dalai Lama.of Tibet.
brampton wicks i understand that in the full moon night, the buddha meditated to the extent that he saw his past lives. Is this merely a story or if not, does it indicate some continuity across lives?
@@penguin0101 Siddhidartha was on the path to his enlightenment as the historical Lord Buddha. Gaining the levels of ominisence which past Buddhas before him had achieved. The continuous evolving consciencness as illustrated in the Jataka stories up to enlightenment can only mean that a great human being walked among us 2,600 years ago and will continue to live on and evolve until we all reach enlightened. That's the great vow of a Bodhisattva
brampton wicks 🙏🏼thanks for your time
Long live his holiness 14th Dalai Lama 🙏
Thank you very much for your advises Master holiness Dalai Lama
I am very happy hear about tulku , in my opinion Master, it is the true concept at Buddhaism
The philosophy of reincarnation , it is better to understand and serve as individually, I am very agreed with that
Peace be upon you Master Holiness Dalai Lama
Amituofo Amitabhha Buddha
Some people questioned that if reincarnation is important, then why Buddha Shakyamuni has not reincarnated? My answer is Buddha Shakyamuni reincarnated in the form of a Spiritual Guide.
It’s through the Dharma that an individual can learn how to transcend reincarnation. I guess the Dalai is saying that a preoccupation with the next one, is an attachment that is probably not conducive to Nirvana.
I am a restless person. May be some day, I will find peace with such thinking.
No Mr. Dalai Lama, A king is not religious authority in Islamic State, he's only political authority within Islamic jurisprudence. Religious scholars - Qadhi, Mufti, grand Mufti, etc. hold/held religious authority
Unfortunately, many people read different books about reincarnation, which confuse the issue. In the Bhagavad-gita, chapter 2, verse 17 states: "Know that which pervades the entire body is indestructible. No one is able to destroy the imperishable soul." The living entity is not the body. We are not seeing each other. We are only seeing the bodies. You must understand that we are not the body. The body is like a machine that we are temporarily using. This is not a belief. We are talking about the highest science here. Krishna also explains in the Bhagavad-gita how a person within one life migrates from a baby body to an adult body and then to an old body. The cells have changed in the body. You are not the brain either.
Understanding that I am not the body is the first basic understanding in spiritual life. You are the spirit soul, who is going from one body to the next. What does the mind have to do with this? In the Bhagavad-gita, chapter 15, verses 8 & 9 state: "The living entity in the material world carries his different conceptions of life from one body to another as the air carries aromas. The living entity, thus taking another gross body, obtains a certain type of ear, tongue, and nose and sense of touch, which are grouped about the mind. He thus enjoys a particular set of sense objects." If you still have desire for material sense enjoyment, then nature provides you with another set of senses. A new material body is developed from the subtle material body.
You will find innumerable living entities. They also have tongues, ears and eyes. These are spirit souls, parts and parcels of God, just as much as we are. It is by the arrangement of nature that we get a certain type of body to carry out the particular desires that a person has. Each of us is enjoying different foods according to different tastes. If our mentality in this life is shaped like that of an animal, then we will take on an animal body in the next life. If one neglects the facility for self-realization in the human form of life, then one will not receive another human of life. What we do now with our gross physical body affects our mind, our subtle material body.
Long life your Holiness Tashi Delek ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Taking out of context a slice of a larger converstion, obviously from many comments, the point didn't register for a lot of people.
Long Live H H the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet ! 🙏🙏🙏
Buddha didn't recarnate cause he breaked the cycle of birth and rebirth and got nivarna. (human can get nivarna by doing good things)
Je Tsongkhapa was the reincarnation of the Buddha and he set up the Gelug school and was a teacher of the 1st Dalai Lama. That Tenzin can't refer to this really suggests he is not the authentic Dalai Lama.
Look man you're living in middle ages , come to current age these all are not true, Buddha was a man who gave the truth according to his perspective maybe at that time he couldn't find any more convincing truth due to limited resources so he taught reincarnation , and the basic teaching of buddha what he told that -"My followers should not accept anything just because of faith they should rather do thorough investigation and experiment"
And that is what dalai lama 14th is doing he is investigating the truth so he is completely right no such thing as reincarnation happens , there is no god, we are just born through comic fluke , and we should not do good deeds just because of fear but to make society a peaceful and better place.
why are you talking about a successor?
he's still alive.. he is a holy man walking among us... his rebirth is guaranteed... and
you don't have to worry about it at all
He did. One lifetime just wasn't enough to build so many people up to the full realization of a Buddha, or anyone to be precise, nor a big Sangha that would have supported Shakyamunis reincarnation in a way he would have liked to, after all he was a prince before being the Buddha of our time. Just because you cannot prove it did happen doesn't mean it didn't. Same for all masters. Do you think they are above the clouds in full bliss forever looking at us who have their feet on the ground? Most buddhist practitoners and even masters, however high their titles, are merely liberated and products of the teachings transmitted in the many lineages if Buddhism. Rare are those who make their own realization.
1:13 WOW!! Superb!
Reincarnation is not needed if one can reach enlightenment in one lifetime. It is only needed because it's very difficult to reach the final destination.
Every time we come back, if we are awakened and conscious, we will continue our spiritual journey until we complete the full course. Unless and until we reach it,
we will have to have to return back whether we like it or not. So, the more we make the effort to progress in every single incarnation, the less rebirths we will have to take.
Sad to say, this master is not as enlightened as most people think. He has never say that he is fully enlightened. He maybe a very advanced seeker, but he is not a full master, yet.
Sadly, the great Nalanda was destroyed by Muslims as they raided India and, of course, they slaughtered the non-violent monks there unless they would convert to Islam. The damage they did to Dharma was somehting India never got back and Buddhism died there. Taxila the great center for Buddhist learning was similarly destroyed 5-6 centuries before, this time the raiders were the Huns.
Of course, everyone knows what happened with China and Tibet - the same thing. Once again raided and invaded by outsiders who once again slaughtered the defensless monks.
I suppose, that may bode well for non-violence or not, depending on your point of view. Is being defenseless and non-violent the right thing to do, if it it leads to the destruction of Dharma, thousands of texts - something that Buddhism will never get back and who knows what was on those texts in those three invasions? People may or may not know this, but NOTHING was written about the Buddha for at least 5 centuries after he died. Only (relatively) recently did we discover the Ganhara canon which revealed things about Buddhism no one ever knew. Who knows what was lost in those invasions. It's left to society and history to decide if the Buddhist not fighting back in these 3 invasions and slaughters was the right thing to do. Should they have fought back and sacrificed their morality and ehtics to preserve it? I know the answer, but I'm putting it out there for the rest of the world.
Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu! Happy Birthday!
He's right. Reincarnation is nonsense. This man is a real Buddha.
I’m here I was reincarnated I am the one and only Buddha I’m here I seen myself reborn at that I’m here I’m the living reincarnated Buddha I have plenty of proof I am Buddha and my parents named my middle name Buddha for a reason I am the Buddha I’m here I’m 35 years old
Why the background sound?
Something for life
He can only remember the life before him for 7️⃣7 years. It is common to everyone. 8️⃣8 is 00 which is the end. Seven years later, there is no memory of reincarnation. Although she has merit, she has to live a long life. She has to say goodbye to an accident. In that sense, she owes a debt of gratitude for her lost life. If the lost person becomes a human being, reincarnation will take place. Everyone called reincarnation will have lost their life in an accident.
Yet even if He Rainbows out, His Spirit will still be here on Earth-
Thank you
“If reincarnation is important then why didn’t Buddha reincarnate?”;
1) How do you know that Buddha didn’t reincarnate?
2) It is widely believed that Buddha attained spiritual enlightenment (nirvana), once a soul attains this the cycle of reincarnation is broken thus there is no need to reincarnate again.
There I have answered your question
It was a retorical question, genius.
It’s great to see Dalai Lama questioning Reincarnation concept in his later years. I pray that lord Jesus Christ work in his life & his heart ❤️
jesus is nobody.
if reincaration is real...i wamt to find my twin grother.i dreant about him a year ago but i did not get to talk to him. i miss him more than life.
Must make distinction between reincarnation and rebirth, according to buddhism we are all reborn again and again in this cycle of existence, it depends on our actions(karma, good/bad) that we'll be reborn as humans or as any form or formless being. Reincarnated beings such as His holiness the 14th dalai lama or the 17th karmapa or Mingyur rinpoche, these beings have attained a certain level of insight into the complex system of mind awareness and its constructs which can only be achieved through wisdom of compassion and particular methods,
They've vowed to be in existence till all sentient beings reach the same blissful state of buddhahood and they propound their knowledge about how to achieve such a state, so that human beings and others can know how to deal with sufferings of the mind while in existence and know how to eventually reach a state of true and complete bliss(buddhahood). I am sorry that you lost your brother, since you have a karmic connection to him, you will meet again, again and again, life after life, in any form, but you will no longer remember him or he will no longer remember you, such is our cycle of existence. Train in meditation and work for the sake of all sentient beings, unconditionally, unbiased, to lift them all out of suffering, love them as if they were your brother or mother, ultimately you may reach a stage where you will be able to recognise your brother and also recognise that all sentient beings were our mothers and fathers thousands and hundreds and millions of times, over and over in this cyclic existence, you will find no need to seek for him, for he never left, he can never leave existence, unless he practices the path to liberation or buddhahood, I may sound religious, apologies, but such is the nature of all existing phenomena. 🙏🏼 Hope I helped. Rest, just be kind and you'll be fine 👍🏼
@@hellboundtruck123 you are right. everyone is our relatives or friends in this samsara. But once you could break the illusion of this is us. That is ours then you also understand that all beings are what they do what they acumulated and the circle goes on and on. There will be no more clinging. BUT There only Compassion and wisdom which happens. Really cant imagine if we could remember all of our relatives in the past lifes. it would be comolicated and bad. Because personally we will not always have good memories with everyone in this samsara.
So he’s calling the Buddha wrong?
Absolutely correct
*"LIFE The Real Self", can NOT DIE, as it is Non-Dimensional, and Outside your Universe experience, residing in "The Place of LIFE" !*
He is so great…….👏👏👏👏👏🦋😉🦋🦋
Picture shown in 0:11 is wrong. That’s is not his temple. That is main monastery school ( gyuto monastery) of 17th karmapa. Third holiest lama of Tibet and throne holder of gyuto school. Dalai Lama temple is half an hour from the west direction of gyuto monastery.
Was His Holiness about to say something about feudalism in Tibet and it's link to the institution of the Dalai Lama? We love this man, but we can't help but feel that the institution has caused material suffering even if it did give many spiritual freedom. For all the learning and teaching, there was no penicillin like invention, no leather for the soul of the physical foot, only the spiritual one.
Buddha was battling between 3 versions of life
If the lama can reincrate to human . Why they didn't unable to recollect their past lives and doesn't have the power of the 3rd eyes or communicate with the higher realm, like the deva??
本物の強いさはこれです
1:14 "No Buddha has reincarnated." I don`t understand - He himself is the chosen one as the reincarnation of Buddha. When he dies there will be another chosen one. Why is he saying this??
Oh The Great 14 th Dalai lama was born in 6 july 1935 [ BS 1992 Ashadh 22 ] while my father krishna bahadur rajbhandary on 3 july 1935 [ BS 1992 Ashadh 19 ] , 3 days before 14 th Dalai Lama Montessori , Prakash , Balsudan , Prashan , Janaki , Rasmi , Jigyasa , Prasuna , Priyash [ total family - Nine 9 ]
Okay but wasn’t he chosen because as a young child he was stating & recalling particular things that only the previous Dalai Lama had known?
Who will be next pachen lama
The real name of the Dalai Lama is incorrectly posted.
@Pine Joi who is pine joe
I think Buddhism we know today is only 50% of what buddha really tried to teach.
Nop. It's totally preserved.
I m relincarnation of SIDDHARTHA which mentioned in buddist cosmology and my guardian angel presence. Without angel presence it can't be sured.
So buddist can worship me
He is just an ordinary Monk. Isn't that the thruth?
@Pine Joi tiuli lamoka chauhai fokai
"As long as sentient beings remain, so I will remain."
This prayer is disturbing. I hope there is no reincarnation. I do not want to repeat childhood.
Look up 'the reincarnation trap'
HHDL would agree with Thich Nhat Hahn who felt that the next Buddha would be the Sangha.
DL has never said that.
You are right. I just felt that he MIGHT agree with that idea. @@Buddhist_Philosopher
@@GailHarrell Tibetan Buddhism is quite concrete and explicit, no so "romantic" like Thay.
Have a good day.
don't like the music..could you post the same video without it? thanks!
Gautama Buddha already ascended and transcended the wheel of rebirth. Now it's our turn to do the same by following their examples just like Jesus Christ.
Nature is important. As our body is the temple. Naure is what we shouod really learn from.
