Ground Report: Tibetan Refugees in Paris: Story of Faith, Exile, Resistance in face of Chinese Wrath

Inside a peaceful Parisian park lies a powerful story of faith, exile, and identity. Every year, Tibetans gather at the Pagoda of Vincennes for the Sakya Monlam prayer—thousands of kilometers from their homeland. As tensions rise with China over the Dalai Lama’s successor, refugees like Tenzing and Lobsang share their fears, hopes, and ties to India—whom they call their “second homeland.” This is more than a spiritual gathering—it's a silent resistance for a forgotten people. #Tibet #Paris #TibetanRefugees #DalaiLama #ChinaVsTibet #TibetInExile #HiddenTemple #BoisDeVincennes #TibetanCulture #HumanRights #FaithAndResistance #IndiaTibet #TibetanDiaspora #FreeTibet #TibetanVoices #TibetanPrayer #ChinaPolitics #ExileStories #Buddhism #SpiritualResilience

Dalai Lama at 90: China’s Challenge and the Future of Tibetan Leadership

As the Dalai Lama turns 90, he declares his successor will not be born in China—defying Beijing’s succession claims. China, which once called Tibetan Buddhism “poison,” insists it will approve any reincarnation. India backs the Tibetan leader, with PM Modi and Minister Kiren Rijiju supporting religious autonomy. The threat of two Dalai Lamas—one genuine, one Chinese-appointed—echoes the Panchen Lama crisis. With global attention rising, the future of Tibetan Buddhism hinges on protecting its sacred, sovereign traditions. #DalaiLama90 #Tibet #ChinaTibet #ReligiousFreedom #TibetanBuddhism #PanchenLama #DalaiLamaSuccession #IndiaSupportsTibet #BeijingVsDharamshala #ModiOnTibet #TibetanRights #GlobalFaith #FreeTibet #SpiritualLeadership #CommunistChina #CulturalHeritage #KirenRijiju #TibetUnderThreat #ChinaInterference #SacredTraditions #TibetanStruggle #AsiaGeopolitics #TwoDalaiLamas #ReincarnationBattle #DalaiLamaStatement Also Read Is Xi Jinping Preparing To Step Down As Chinese President?

DALAI LAMA SHOCKS CHINA: ‘I May Live Beyond 130!’ | Dalai Lama Drops BOMB on Succession Row [Video]

DALAI LAMA SHOCKS CHINA: ‘I May Live Beyond 130!’ | Dalai Lama Drops BOMB on Succession Row

s the 14th Dalai Lama celebrates his 90th birthday, the long-simmering issue of his succession has erupted, placing India and China in a diplomatic standoff. Speaking to followers during long-life prayers in McLeod Ganj, the Tibetan spiritual leader expressed his hope to live beyond 130 years to continue serving humanity. However, the focus has sharply shifted to the political and spiritual battle over who will be his successor. The Dalai Lama has unequivocally stated that his next incarnation will be born in a "free country," a clear rejection of any successor chosen or approved by the Chinese government. This declaration reignites a major point of contention for Beijing, which insists the process must adhere to "Chinese laws and historical practice." This has prompted a stern warning from China's Foreign Ministry, cautioning India to avoid "interference" in Tibet-related matters that could damage fragile bilateral ties between the two Asian giants. India, which granted asylum to the Dalai Lama in 1959 after he fled a failed uprising in Tibet, has maintained a consistent position. New Delhi has stressed that the matter of succession is a religious one and that only the Dalai Lama and his trust have the right to decide. This stance has not appeased Beijing. The situation leaves the Tibetan community in a precarious position, with widespread fears that China will attempt to install a "fake" Dalai Lama to legitimize and tighten its authoritarian control over Tibet. The Dalai Lama's firm stance, India's diplomatic tightrope walk, and China's assertive warnings have set the stage for a major geopolitical flashpoint. #DalaiLama #IndiaChinaRelations #Tibet #BreakingNews #OneindiaNews #Dharamshala #Geopolitics #China #LatestNews #WorldNews Also Read Dalai Lama’s 90th Birthday Message: Altruism, Wisdom, And Hope For The Future :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/dalai-lama-s-90th-birthday-message-altruism-wisdom-and-hope-for-the-future-7792751.html?ref=DMDesc India and the Dalai Lama: A Bond Rooted In Tradition, Tested by Geopolitics :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-and-the-dalai-lama-a-bond-rooted-in-tradition-tested-by-geopolitics-7790117.html?ref=DMDesc The Battle for a Soul: Dalai Lama’s Rebirth Sparks Fresh Tensions with China; Beijing Reacts By Saying... :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/the-battle-for-a-soul-dalai-lama-s-rebirth-sparks-fresh-tensions-with-china-beijing-reacts-by-sayi-7789273.html?ref=DMDesc

‘Only Dalai Lama Decides!’: India SLAMS China’s Bid To Pick Next Dalai Lama | XI RATTLED by Pushback [Video]

‘Only Dalai Lama Decides!’: India SLAMS China’s Bid To Pick Next Dalai Lama | XI RATTLED by Pushback

India has made its position unequivocally clear on the contentious issue of the 14th Dalai Lama's succession, pushing back firmly against China's aggressive claims. In a significant statement, India stressed that the right to choose the next Dalai Lama rests solely with the current Dalai Lama himself and the established traditions. This comes as a direct response to China's Foreign Ministry, which has repeatedly insisted that the selection process must conform to "Chinese laws and historical practice." The Dalai Lama has consistently rejected Beijing's interference. He has designated the Gaden Phodrang Trust, his formal office, as the ultimate authority in identifying and confirming his successor. Indian Union Minister Kiren Rijiju echoed this sentiment, stating that the succession must honor the age-old traditions and the personal wishes of the Dalai Lama. This high-stakes diplomatic standoff has reignited fears among Tibetans in exile, who have long warned that China may attempt to install a "fake" Dalai Lama to solidify its control over Tibet and undermine the Tibetan freedom movement. Living in exile in India since fleeing Chinese repression in 1959, the Dalai Lama remains a global icon of peace, despite Beijing's relentless campaign to label him a separatist. As early as 2011, he cautioned the world that Beijing would likely try to manipulate his reincarnation for political gain. With India now taking a public and resolute stand, the future of one of the world's most revered spiritual leaderships hangs in the balance. #DalaiLama #IndiaChina #Tibet #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #India #China #KirenRijiju #WorldNews #OneindiaNews Also Read India and the Dalai Lama: A Bond Rooted In Tradition, Tested by Geopolitics :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-and-the-dalai-lama-a-bond-rooted-in-tradition-tested-by-geopolitics-7790117.html?ref=DMDesc The Battle for a Soul: Dalai Lama’s Rebirth Sparks Fresh Tensions with China; Beijing Reacts By Saying... :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/the-battle-for-a-soul-dalai-lama-s-rebirth-sparks-fresh-tensions-with-china-beijing-reacts-by-sayi-7789273.html?ref=DMDesc Dalai Lama Says Gaden Phodrang Trust Will Decide His Successor :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/dalai-lama-says-gaden-phodrang-trust-will-decide-his-successor-7788985.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~
