The successor to the Dalai Lama, "a spy or Obama Lama?

Called Ogyen Trinley Dorje. Is 26 and many will point out as the successor to the Dalai Lama. Despite his youth, history, mystery surrounded the Tibetan mind that carries on his back eight centuries of experience in his 17 incarnations. However, beyond the Tibetan tradition places him as the seventeenth Karmapa, the third most important spiritual figure in Tibetan religion, "there is an aura of mystery surrounding his figure and that many have been commissioned to promote.

Although you must 'compete' with Trinley Thaye Dorje, whom many consider the real Dalai Lama, and Osel Hita Torres, the Andalusian Lama, who many pointed as his successor but now lives on condition of anonymity, Ogyen now has its own campaign 'electoral '. According to papers leaked by Wikileaks from the U.S.

embassy in Tibet, the young man is also the reincarnation of the Dalai Lama, "Obama Lama." "His face fresh, stimulating," along with his knowledge of the Western world speaks Chinese, English and Tibetan, and loves video games, have made it to the West is the image of the Dalai Lama century.

Despite the support that seems to have the U.S. and its intention that Buddhism is for everyone: "My work will not be carried out only among Buddhists, but to help everyone," he said in an interview to 'Time', Ogyen hovering over the shadow of doubt. On 26 January, Indian police found in the monastery where he currently resides in Dharamsala region, a million dollars in 20 different currencies which were much Chinese yuan, which could be used, according to several agents , to build similar centers in China.

According to his entourage, the money would be used to build a monastery for forming the Karmapa and his followers. Few would have believed it because behind this story is the true mystery of this possible successor: some suggest it could be a spy for the Chinese government. Ogyen arrived in India with 14 years on an epic journey by which traveled 1,500 kilometers on foot, horseback, jeep and helicopter to be able to reach India, where he was interrogated for weeks thinking it might be a messenger from the system Beijing.

Now, to find the money, the doubts resurface. His press office has been since last February reported almost daily denying sending the smear campaign and ensuring that "has nothing to do with reality." But far from the speculation and rumors, the 17 th Karmapa is every day adding faithful, among whom were Richard Gere and Pierce Brosnan.

He loves the U.S., where he traveled last year and where he promises if he becomes Dalai Lama to travel at least twice a year. Big fan of video game and knows the importance of social networks no doubt have their own profile on Facebook.
