Dalai Lama trying to stir up trouble again

The 83-year-old 14th Dalai Lama told Reuters in an interview on March 18 that once he dies, his reincarnation will be found in India, and added that any other successor named by China would not be respected.
His words did reach some ears owing largely to the sensitive nature of the topic as well as the timing of his statement - before Tibetans in exile in Dharamshala, India, commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Dalai Lama leaving Tibet.
Most of the 14th Dalai Lama's sympathizers may prefer that the central government in Beijing leaves the matter to the aging monk, and "let religion be religion".
