Hi everyone
I have introduced the Xinjiang region to you before
The history of religious evolution from Buddhism to Islam
Let's take a look today
The development of Tibetan Buddhism, which had a profound impact on Chinese history
Especially the four most representative living Buddhas of Tibetan Buddhism
What is your fate now?
Mention Tibetan Buddhism and Living Buddha
The first impression of many people is probably that
Since it is Tibetan Buddhism
Of course, they are all in Tibet.
Actually that's not the case
what we now know
The Tibetan Buddhist system with the four living Buddhas as spiritual leaders
In fact, it covers the entire Mongolian and Tibetan areas
As shown in the figure, you can see four major blocks
Among them, the Dalai Lama is located in Qianzang
Panchen Lama is located in Houzang
Jebzundamba is located in Outer Mongolia
The living Buddha Zhangjia is in Inner Mongolia and the capital area.
In charge of Tibetan Buddhist affairs
So where are these four living Buddhas now?
Is their reincarnation system still working?
before answering this question
Let’s first clarify a few concepts
first
Where did Tibetan Buddhism come from?
I mentioned it in my video introducing the evolution of religion in Xinjiang
Buddhism dates back to the 1st century BC
It was introduced to China from Xinjiang
Gradually formed "Chinese Buddhism"
This system also included the later
Korean Buddhism, Japanese Buddhism and Vietnamese Buddhism
Because the direction of spread is from ancient India to the north
Therefore it is also called Northern Buddhism
Mainly Mahayana Buddhism
Correspondingly, from ancient India to the south via Sri Lanka
Introduced to Southeast Asian countries and parts of Yunnan, China
It is called "Southern Buddhism", mainly Theravada Buddhism.
As another important branch of the Buddhist system, Tibetan Buddhism
appeared very late
Mentioned in previous videos introducing the history of Tibet
During the Tubo Songtsan Gampo period, they married Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty.
and Princess Chizun of Nepal (Nipala)
The two princesses introduced Buddhism to Tibetan areas from Han and Nepal respectively.
Since then, Buddhism in Tibet has gone through the early and late propagation periods.
Gradually formed the later "Tibetan Buddhist system"
And because later the Yuan Dynasty included Tibet into the territory of the Central Plains Dynasty for the first time
Tibetan Buddhism began to spread to Han Dynasty
The most important thing is that it also entered the Mongolian region
Therefore, Buddhism today is mainly divided into
Chinese Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism and Theravada Buddhism
Secondly, Living Buddha
Living Buddha is a Han Chinese term
Originally a Tibetan translation of the Sanskrit word "incarnation"
Tibetan language looks like this
Chinese transliteration reads "zugu"
After being introduced to Mongolia
Mongolian respectfully calls it this
That is "Kutuktu"
so you will notice
When we call the two living Buddhas in Inner and Outer Mongolia,
Also called
"Jebzundamba Hutuktu" and "Zhangjia Hutuktu"
Of course tulkus are also living Buddhas
There are also levels of achievement according to the level of cultivation.
And it’s not just the four mentioned just now.
In fact, since the 13th century AD
The birth of the first living Buddha of the Karma Sect
By the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were 160 officially certified Living Buddhas.
And now
There are more than 1,000 living Buddhas that can be checked in the system
So there’s no guarantee that you can still see a living Buddha when you go to a lamasery.
Of course, their levels and influence are naturally very different.
For example, the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama have reached corresponding status due to their level of cultivation.
It is considered to be the incarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva and Infinite Light Buddha.
With such an identity
will get the corresponding status
Such as land, livestock, etc.
This is linked to secular politics and rights
This has been the case in all dynasties
This also brings variables to their final fate
Let’s take a look at the Dalai Lama first
There are five major sects of Tibetan Buddhism in Tibet
Each sect has its own living Buddha
The Gelug Sect (Yellow Sect) to which the Dalai Lama belongs was founded the latest
The reason why his status in Tibetan areas was so high later
It's because of the needs of the rulers
The Kagyu Sect has always had a traditionally respected status since the Ming Dynasty
Even though the Dalai Lama has started the reincarnation system
But it doesn’t rank at all
After the Khoshot Khanate occupied Tibet, it began to support the obedient Gelug sect.
Later, after entering the customs in the Qing Dynasty,
The fifth Dalai Lama went to Beijing to meet Emperor Shunzhi
Preliminarily confirmed the suzerainty of the central government of the Qing Dynasty
Dalai Lama's dominance in Tibet officially confirmed
But the Qing government still kept a hand
The reason why he later supported three other living Buddhas
In fact, it is mainly to prevent
Dalai Lama gains excessive religious influence in Mongolian and Tibetan areas
Avoid the situation of confronting the Central Branch of the Qing Dynasty
In other words, it is for decentralization
So starting from Emperor Kangxi
The Qing government began to deliberately support the Panchen Lama again
Jebtsundamba and Zhangjia Living Buddha are in charge of Houzang, Outer Mongolia and Inner Mongolia.
in short
Using Panchen Erdeni to Divide the Dalai Lama’s Influence
Two Mongolian Living Buddhas
Divide the influence of the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama in Mongolia
Yizhangjia Hutuktu
To divide Jebzundamba’s influence among all Mongolians
This is how the Qing government
To realize the differentiation of political and religious power and the check and balance of power in the Mongolian and Tibetan areas
Avoid a situation where one party is dominant
This is how the system of co-governance by the four living Buddhas came into being.
Living Buddhas are endowed with divinity by believers
was granted rights by the central government
In fact, he is the local emperor
Therefore, the kind of emperors in Chinese history who were young
And the situation of powerful ministers controlling government affairs also happened in Tibet
After the death of the fifth Dalai Lama
Regent Sangye Gyatso concealed the news of his death for fifteen years
Then he looks for the reincarnated soul boy and uses him as a puppet.
This is the Sixth Dalai Lama Tsangyang Gyatso
The Dalai Lama is quite legendary in history
With his rights eclipsed, he often sneaked out of the Potala Palace at night in casual clothes.
And enter and leave romantic places
And I have constant girlfriends
Later he became a famous poet in the history of Tibetan Buddhism
However, his fate was not like that of his contemporary Emperor Kangxi.
Eradicate powerful ministers and return power to the king
The Sixth Dalai Lama Tsangyang Gyatso
He was deposed in the subsequent political power struggle in Tibet.
And passed away on the way to Beijing
The body was immediately thrown into the wild
The remains of the 5th to 13th Dalai Lama
They were all buried in the Potala Palace pagoda for people to pay their respects to.
Only the sixth Dalai Lama Tsangyang Gyatso does not have his own spiritual pagoda
And the next Dalai Lama may not be able to be buried smoothly in the Potala Palace.
I'm afraid he is the 14th Dalai Lama.
How the 14th Dalai Lama became the reincarnated soul boy
How the enthronement ceremony was completed under the auspices of government officials of the Republic of China
How to establish the new China
After being elected as Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress
In just a few years, he fled to India in 1959
This has been introduced in detail in the Tibetan history video
The exile of the Dalai Lama has given the Western world, led by the United States,
An opportunity to divide China
So I spared no effort to render it extremely
The "divinity" of the 14th Dalai Lama and his efforts to weaken his "humanity"
Not only is it packaged as a "god" who doesn't make mistakes,
He also awarded the 1989 Nobel Peace Prize to him
The Chinese government is trying its best to downplay its influence in Tibetan areas.
Instead, they stepped up their efforts to support the Panchen Living Buddha
So is the Dalai Lama really infallible?
The 14th Dalai Lama previously said when answering whether there will be a female Dalai Lama
"She needs to be good-looking and attractive
if she is an ugly woman
Then she won’t be attractive”
Such remarks are accused of objectifying women
Then when attending an event with Lady Gaga
Keep an eye on the holes in her jeans
And reached out to touch her legs repeatedly
It didn’t stop until Lady Gaga reached out to stop her
Although some public opinion at the time believed that the Dalai Lama's move was inappropriate,
But under the touted “divineness” of the Western media
Countless dignitaries and celebrities still want to meet with the Dalai Lama
Until last year, February 2023
The 14th Dalai Lama at a public event in Dharamsala, India
He even stuck out his tongue to a boy who came up to interact with him.
Also known as "suck my tongue"
The image of “hypocrite” under the cloak of religion
finally exposed to a global audience
Although the Dalai Lama clique argued that this was a "traditional Tibetan custom"
But except for this old man
We did not see any living Buddha or believer of Tibetan Buddhism
Have done such obscene behavior to children
The British Daily Mail wrote:
If the relevant behavior occurs to the Pope
The Pope will resign immediately
The silence on the Dalai Lama's actions is shameful
There are even calls from South African political parties
Indian government arrests 14th Dalai Lama on child sexual abuse charges
The turn of public opinion has also attracted politicians and celebrities who are flocking to
disappeared
The 14th Dalai Lama has since fallen from the altar
After talking about the Dalai Lama, let’s talk about the Panchen Lama.
I just said that the Qing government supported the Panchen Lama
It is to divide the Dalai Lama’s power in Tibetan areas
In 1713 AD, Emperor Kangxi consecrated the fifth Panchen Lama as
"Panchen Erdeni"
"Erdeni" means "treasure" in Mongolian and Manchu
That is, the Panchen baby
Panchen Lama is in charge of Tibetan affairs in Tibetan areas
Its residence is Tashilhunpo Monastery in Shigatse
as shown on the map
The Panchen Lama’s back Tibet is larger than the Dalai Lama’s front Tibet.
Does that mean that the Panchen Lama has a higher status or real power?
Not so
Those who understand the geography of Tibet should know
Front Tibet has a lower altitude than Back Tibet
Higher vegetation coverage
Suitable climate
More suitable for human habitation
Therefore, most of Tibet's more than 3 million people are concentrated in the former Tibet area.
Most areas in Houtang are above 5,000 meters above sea level.
Severe hypoxia and harsh climate
Extremely unsuitable for human survival
Many places in Ngari and Nagqu are no-man’s land.
Therefore, although the Dalai Lama and Panchen Lama are mutual teachers,
But regardless of real power and prestige
The Panchen Lama in Back Tibet is slightly inferior to the Dalai Lama in Front Tibet
Therefore, in the process of reincarnation of living Buddhas in the past dynasties, the Panchen Lama
Not like the Dalai Lama
With so much controversy and bloodshed
But there is a special being among them
That is the 10th Panchen Lama
Not that his reincarnation is controversial.
Rather, he is one of the Panchen Living Buddhas of all generations.
The only Panchen Living Buddha who married a wife and had children
The enthronement ceremony of the 10th Panchen Lama in August 1949
At a time when China is changing colors
The 10th Panchen Lama did not move to Taiwan with the Nationalist Government
But stayed in the mainland
Then during the democratic reform in Tibetan areas
The Panchen Lama is not as repellent as the Dalai Lama
He also used his Chundui Manor as a pilot project
But even so
The 10th Panchen Lama did not escape the subsequent anti-rightist movement and the wave of the Cultural Revolution.
He was imprisoned in Beijing for a long time and was not released until 1977.
Then in 1978, they were 20 years apart
Li Jie, the granddaughter of the founding general Dong Qiwu, got married
And gave birth to a daughter in 1983
Named Renji Wangmo
This is when Xi Zhongxun and his wife went to congratulate Renji Wangmo on his 100th day.
It can be said that it is full of cards
Panchen Living Buddha marries lovely wife and has children
This is unique among all previous Panchen Lamas.
Therefore, in the hearts of many Tibetan Buddhist believers
His daughter Renji Wangmo became the only "Tibetan Princess"
This is a photo of Renji Wangmo and his mother Li Jie with the next generation Panchen Choekyi Jebu
The 11th Panchen Lama came after the death of the 10th Panchen Lama
In front of the Buddha statue in the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa in 1995
After the ceremony of drawing lots from the golden urn
Confirmed as the reincarnation of the 10th Panchen Lama
This is also the case since the founding of New China in 1949.
For the first time, the living Buddha was identified through drawing lots from the golden urn
And there was an episode in this reincarnation
It is the 14th Dalai Lama who has fled abroad
Skip the lot from the golden jar
Directly and remotely designated a child named Genden Choekyi Nyima
The reincarnation of the Panchen Lama
However, it is not recognized by the government of the People's Republic of China
The 34-year-old 11th Panchen Choekyi Jebu is also one of the four living Buddhas.
The only living Buddha still in mainland China
Finished talking about the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama
Let’s look at Mongolia again
Jebtsundamba from Outer Mongolia and Zhangjia Living Buddha from Inner Mongolia
Because the Qing government intended to support it
To differentiate the influence of the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama in Mongolia
Moreover, the first Jebtsundamba received ordination from the fourth Panchen Lama.
Therefore, its status and influence in the hearts of Tibetan Buddhist monks
Naturally, it is not as good as the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama
In 1688 AD, Khalkha (Outer Mongolia) was attacked by the Junggar Khanate.
Jebtsundamba I quickly led his troops to surrender to the Qing Dynasty
Since then, Outer Mongolia has been officially included in the territory of the Qing Dynasty.
Emperor Kangxi conferred the title of Great Lama of Hutuktu on Jebtsundamba I
Officially established his identity as a religious leader in Outer Mongolia
And in order to avoid Mongolian areas being like Tibetan areas
Reincarnate Jebtsundamba to the home of the Mongolian prince
Emperor Qianlong's regulations
The reincarnated soul boy must come from Tibetan area
The final decision will be made by drawing lots from the golden urn at the Yonghe Temple in Beijing.
Therefore, his reincarnation was firmly in the hands of the central government of the Qing Dynasty.
After the outbreak of the Revolution of 1911
Outer Mongolia has repeatedly sought independence with the support of northern Russia
Finally in 1921
The Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party defeated the Beiyang Army with the assistance of the Soviet Red Army
Seize power in Outer Mongolia
The eighth Jebtsundamba was immediately dismissed
Then he died suddenly and mysteriously in Cullen in 1924.
Subsequently, the People's Revolutionary Party government announced that it would no longer search for reincarnated soul boys.
However, the Reting Living Buddha who later served as regent in Tibet
A child named Jampanandro was designated as the ninth Jebtsundampa
but was not recognized
Jambanandro once returned to secular life
Until the Dalai Lama fled to India in 1959
He also followed
and lives with seven children in India
And in 1991
Dalai Lama, who just won the Nobel Peace Prize
Recognized Jampanandro’s identity as the reincarnation of Jebtsundampa
and presided over his enthronement ceremony in Dharamshala
Then the ninth Jebtsundampa returned to Outer Mongolia
And finally passed away in Ulaanbaatar in 2012
During his visit to Mongolia in 2016, the Dalai Lama said
The 10th Jebtsundamba was already born in Mongolia
But so far, the identity of this reincarnated soul boy has not been announced.
Therefore, the system of the reincarnation of Jebtsundamba
It can be regarded as continuing in Mongolia.
But what Qianlong formulated must be in the Yonghe Temple in Beijing.
The system of drawing lots from the golden urn is gone
Finally, there is Changjia Living Buddha
Living Buddha Zhangjia received strong support from the Qing government during the Kangxi and Qianlong years.
and obtained the status of religious leaders in Inner Mongolia and Beijing
The Third Zhangjia Living Buddha also studied with the young Qianlong in his early years.
Live in Prince Yong's Mansion
Later, Prince Yong's Mansion was renamed Yonghe Palace.
Becoming the largest Tibetan Buddhist temple in Beijing
Then in 1949
The 7th Zhangjia did not stay in the mainland like the 10th Panchen Lama
Instead, they moved to Taiwan with the Nationalist Government.
At that time, two other great figures also went to Taiwan together.
They are Kong Decheng, the 77th generation grandson of Confucius.
and Zhang Enpu, the 63rd generation Celestial Master of Celestial Master Taoism
Finally, the seventh Living Buddha Zhangjia passed away in Taiwan in 1957.
And before he passed away, he signed it himself
Before the government successfully counterattacked the mainland,
Changjia Living Buddha’s Will No longer Reincarnates
It seems impossible to counterattack the mainland now
This also heralds the end of the reincarnation system of Zhangjia Living Buddha.
However, the Dalai Lama, unwilling to be lonely, came out again to teach the gods and Buddhas.
After referring to the Panchen Lama and Jebtsundampa respectively,
In 1998, the 14th Dalai Lama appointed a Tibetan who had fled to India as a child.
As the eighth Zhangjia Living Buddha
and was ordained in Dharamsala, India
Currently based in Drepung Monastery, Sinan, India
But his reincarnation identity
Neither has been recognized by mainland China or Taiwan.
Well, the above are the past and present lives of the four living Buddhas of Tibetan Buddhism.
