14th Dalai Lama tramples on validity of ancestors
The 14th Dalai Lama said in his statement of reincarnation: "Even in the case of the 10th Dalai Lama, the authentic reincarnation had already been found and in reality this procedure was not followed, but in order to humour the Manchus it was merely announced that this procedure had been observed."
"However, the 12th Dalai Lama had already been recognized before the procedure was employed," he added.
According to the writer who wrote about the 10th Dalai Lama’s biography, approved by Emperor Dao Guang (1782-1850), the lot-drawing ceremony for the recognition of the 10th Dalai Lama was held on January 15, 1822 by Tibetan calendar where memorial tablets and statues of emperors were displayed.
The lot-drawing ceremony for the recognition of the 12th Dalai Lama was held on January 13, 1858 (Tibetan calendar) in the same hall. The ceremony was resided by Manqing, the high commissioner stationed in Tibet by the Qing Government, who said to the 12th Dalai Lama’s father, "Your son has been recognized as the reincarnation of the Dalai Lama by the procedure of drawing lots from the golden urn. Please thank the emperor for his kindness."
That situation was also noted by the local government in the 12th Dalai Lama’s biography as well.
In order to throw the lot-drawing system, the 14th Dalai Lama sacrificed the validity of the previous Dalai Lamas ever since the 8th one!
