Protect you children no grown up man has business kissing children in their mouths!

Merry Merrier says:

Trust me this is an act out of joke. His holiness will be the last person who will ever get serious into such act in real life. Don’t make useless comments.there are some fake lamas, who drink alcohol and fool others but trust me it’s not his holiness.

He was probably saying that if the next Dali Lama is a woman, she should be more attractive than HIM. He was using self-deprecating humor. And as far as the sucking on his tongue. If he did it in public, he probably thought it was innocent. Inappropriate in American culture, but I don't think that guy would ever do anything to hurt a child.

The sad reality. We have to be careful who we follow, because people are sadly deceiving. These kind 0f influencer just released apology, thru other people not even directly from them. And they expect to be understood but if it is a regular person it will involve legal actions 😢

“Foolishness is Common”….. “Common Sense” is Not”! …..And we are all subject to it.

kevin washington says:

Living, Long enough …..we all are prone to mistakes you can’t always correct all of them… but we must try…..

kevin washington says:

And let’s pray for Dalai Lama to have a better understanding we all make mistakes…. Let us not throw stones when we ourselves even need to reevaluate ourselves … so we pray for a better understanding… for ourselves and for Dalai Lama….!

kevin washington says:

I pray for Dalai Lama! and Wish, Dalai Lama well!

Michael P says:

Sorry it was caught on camera.

Tenzin Jigme says:

Mainstream media uses Dalai Lama’s name and image to promote their TRP. They didn’t defend Dalai Lama when the whole world trolled His Holiness. Shame on Biased media.

Tenzin Jigme says:

Long live Dalai Lama! We stand with Dalai Lama.

RAMU says:

RAMU says:

Some Indians chapre u tuber like aur subscribe ki leye yeh sab Karte hai

RAMU says:

Victoria S says:

The boy and his family are perfectly fine, grateful and happy after the opportunity to meet the Dalai Lama. Please watch their interviews from after the incident.
Important to know as well that the mother of the kid was literally a meter away while the boy was with the Dalai Lama.

Also if you are actually open to investigate and learn something, please read this:

Lost in Translation: Eat My Tongue

The Tibetan Phrase “Che La Sa”

A key point missing: In Tibetan culture, it is common to see old grandparents not only give a kiss to small children, but to also give a small candy or piece of food to children from their mouths – directly from mouth to mouth. This may not be the norm of your culture, but this is commonly done.

After the Elder gives a kiss and a candy, since there is nothing left in their mouth, nothing left to give, they will say the phrase, “OK now eat my tongue,” (not suck, his Holiness misspoke due to his less than proficient English).

The Tibetan phrase is, “Che la sa,” They say that as in, “I've given you all my love and the candy so that's it – all that's left to do is, “eat my tongue.” It is a playful thing that the children know. This is not really done in the Lhasa region the capital of Tibet as much, but it is more common in the Amdo region where the Dalai Lama is from. However it is definitely a Tibetan custom.

If we are honest with ourselves, we know that when we form an opinion on any topic, without considering many aspects of the context, in any given situation, we are choosing to keep a significant degree of ignorance in our reasoning.

On Perception

On the whole, we naturally tend to trust our everyday perceptions; we assume their validity without it even occurring to us to question them. We naïvely believe that the way we perceive things is identical with the way things are. And so, because events and things, including the self, appear to have objective reality, we conclude, tacitly and often without any reflection at all, that they do in fact have an objective reality. Only through the process of careful analysis can we see that this is not so, that our perceptions do not accurately reflect objective reality.

from the book "Essence of the Heart Sutra"

The cropped video was spread by Chinese propaganda channels and influencers who saw a perfect opportunity to try to tarnish the image of the Dalai Lama in their constant effort to abolish Tibetan culture and impose their political and cultural occupation. If you truly care about children, please do some research on how Chinese authorities are striping Tibetan families from their kids to send them to Chinese boarding schools were they are brainwashed and not even allowed to learn in Tibetan. You people think you are standing against child predators by condemning and defaming the Dalai Lama who has an impeccable record of not hurting anyone in his 87 years of life and 83 years of spiritual and political leadership of an occupied nation, not even against his oppressors for what he earned a Nobel Peace Prize. Please do some research and see the whole picture, who are hurting the people of Tibet greatly by misrepresenting the Dalai Lama. They have suffered enough!

Hiroko Morioka says:

Inappropriateness, though it may have been innocent. We all need discernment, especially in the totally new virtual world.

sho thao says:

Ewe gross unfollowing him

Tenzin Chodon says:

You clearly haven't watched the interview of the child and his mother after the event who expressed that they were overjoyed and blessed meeting His Holiness. All the attendees said such positive things. Western people need to educate themselves about diverse cultures. Just by watching a cleverly edited clip and with zero research about the Tibetan culture, you are here to lecture us. Many journalists and media houses have already apologized after they were proven wrong.

Tenzin Chodon says:

Eastern cultures don't need approval from the west. We don't sexualize everything like in the west. Please understand that sticking out one's tongue has been a custom of greeting in Tibet since ancient times. Kissing on the lips is very common in the culture. When His Holiness asks – "suck my tongue" he doesn't literally mean it. Grandparents often use the phrase – "Che le sa" which translates to "eat my tongue". When kids are persistent with their want for candies, the Tibetan Grandparents say this. And often times, it is also said in an innocent and playful manner.

Without knowing anything about our culture and without watching the full video of the event, please don't jump to conclusions.

The event was held in February. Why is the video circulating now? Why are so many bot accounts actively engaged online in spreading hate?

The answer is simple – this is led by China and is completely geopolitical.

But in the end no matter how powerful dark forces are, truth always prevails!

rbir675 says:

Hahah this guy is so fake.

Dans white says:

If he does this in public imagine his private life. Another holy predator who shouldn’t have access to children

bigblufish says:

an apology is not good enough – he is not holy but a disgusting old man wearing robes

Moniulka M says:

Your Holiness what you have done is indefensible ! Shows finally step by step the real face of all those high profile religious pervs
