World News | Attack on Tawang is more about Tibetan Buddhism and spirituality than Xi Jinping’s geopolitics: Report

Beijing [China]Dec. 24 (ANI): The attack on Tawang, Arunachal Pradesh has more to do with Chinese geopolitics than Tibetan Buddhism and spirituality, as the next Dalai Lama may be there. Regional reincarnation, which will destroy China’s chances of choosing the next reincarnation, Vas Shenoy writes in The Times of Israel.

On December 9, the People’s Liberation Army troops touched the actual control line in the Tawang section and launched a resolute and decisive contest with the Indian army. The standoff resulted in minor injuries to some personnel on both sides.

The conflict seems to be limited to geopolitics, but it’s not just that. Tawang, on the border of Arunachal Pradesh, is home to the Tawang Gadannam Jelazzi Monastery, the oldest and second largest Tibetan Buddhist monastery outside of Chinese control.

According to the author, the Dawanggadanangelazi Monastery, built in 1681, is arguably part of the mystical mystery of the future of Tibet, whose spirituality and politics are currently embodied in the 14th Dalai Lama.

The 87-year-old Dalai Lama is reported to be in poor health. His succession is likely to be hugely controversial as China tries to nominate a new Dalai Lama to rein in Tibetan Buddhism.

However, the Dalai Lama can also be reincarnated in Tawang, which is home to thousands of Tibetan families who have lived around the monastery for generations. Controlling the mountains around Tawang would help Chinese forces push further and eventually capture the monastery, the authors said.

According to the author, after the 14th Dalai Lama, Tibetans must find their next successor, which will largely determine how much force China needs to use to maintain its absolute control over Tibet.

Discontent is running high in China, Tibet and Xinjiang over Supreme Leader Xi Jinping, who is running for an unprecedented third term, and the CCP is nervous about the current Dalai Lama’s visit to the disputed region of Ladakh aboard an Indian military helicopter, according to reports to this author.

With the current Dalai Lama alive, the status quo in Tibet will remain the same, and a young, dynamic Dalai Lama from Tawang could upset the balance Xi is trying to maintain in Tibet and drive other provinces like Xinjiang And strengthen Hong Kong’s resistance to Hong Kong and Taiwan independence, according to the Times of Israel.
