Title: Panchen Lama in Tibet
Post by: icy on October 15, 2013, 01:20:34 AM
The 11th Panchen Lama, Bainqen Erdini Qoigyijabu, concluded his religious activities in the Tibet Autonomous Region on Monday, according to sources with the regional government.

The 23-year-old Panchen Lama, one of the two most revered living Buddhas in Tibetan Buddhism, has performed religious rituals, including sutra interpretations and giving blessings, for thousands of Tibetan Buddhists at several monasteries in the region, since August 27.

The Panchen Lama lived in seclusion at the Zhaxi Lhunbo Lamasery in Xigaze Prefecture, the traditional residence of reincarnated Panchen Lamas, from September 12 to October 7.

The 11th Panchen Lama was born in February 1990 in northern Tibet.

He was chosen as the reincarnation of the 10th Panchen Lama in November 1995 after a lot-drawing ceremony among three candidates in the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa.
