I wrote this with an aim of giving a one-stop-shop for all things re Tibetan Buddhist reincarnations & in particular how the battle "for" Mongolia's #Jebtsundamba Khutuktu b/n Dharamsala & Beijing (#Shugden) will impact #DalaiLama & Buddhism' future.

Last summer two peculiar fake news made waves in🇲🇳.

One said, "Dalai Lama had died". The other said, "10th Jebtsundamba Khutuktu will be enthroned tomorrow".

Both were denied by Dharamsala & Mongolia's main monastery Gandantegchinlen. Let's see what if they were true?

Authority to identify the 10th Jebtsundamba Khutuktu (JK) rests with the Dalai Lama & if he died in his absence, powers friendly to 🇨🇳 (inc Shugden sect) would likely have argued for the religion’s second-highest authority, the Panchen Erdeni, to identify the next Khutuktu.
