As the Dalai Lama turns 90 on July 6, celebrations are underway in McLeodganj, Dharamshala. But this milestone also carries global significance, not just for Tibetan Buddhists, but for China, India, the US and beyond. Not just because of the occasion, but because of what the Dalai Lama may say about his succession. For over a decade, he has suggested that his 90th birthday would be the moment to address the future of his spiritual office. With his latest statement hinting that the institution will continue "under some kind of a framework," the question now is whether he will reveal how the next Dalai Lama will be chosen and from where.
