I agree that H.H. the 14th Dalai Lama is most knowledgeable in Buddhism and is a most intelligent being. But,pray may I ask, who his teachers are? Or, is it a case of when your Gurus enters clear light, they immediately cease to be your teacher?

His Holiness has the means to have very public teachings to thousands all over the world. He can thus initiate thousands at a time and have millions of students. But, does ALL Tibetans and ALL Tibetan Buddhism practitioners call him their Guru? Does all within Gelug order call him Root Guru? If so, I think he can jolly well do as he pleases as did the God Emperors of feudal China. The Hell with Human Rights, roll in apartheid!
