Synopsis: This analysis delves into the mystery surrounding the elaborate process of recognition and enthronement of reincarnate spiritual masters, or tulkus. It includes a translation of a traditional text by Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Taye on the enthronement of tulkus and a fascinating interview with Tai Situ Rinpoche. The introduction places the subject of tulkus within two major contexts - in the activity of bodhisattvas and in modern Tibetan society, where the reappearance of past masters is both perfectly natural and profoundly moving. Also included is an account of the last days of Kalu Rinpoche`s life and his new incarnation. |
