		The concept of the reincarnation of a lama--where the soul of a dead lama is thought to have taken on the physical being of a newly born individual--is uniquely Tibetan.

		Since the 17th century the Panchen Lama has acted as Tibet's religious leader while the reincarnation of the Dalai Lama is being sought, and the older of the two incarnates has been the religious teacher of the younger.
		Beginning in May bans were placed on public discussion of the Panchen Lama in the major Tibetan cities, and in June China launched a campaign to denounce the Dalai Lama on a scale not seen since the Cultural Revolution of the 1970's.
		Since the Panchen Lama is the ultimate authority in the identification of the next reincarnation of the Dalai Lama, they believe it will only be a matter of time until the next Dalai Lama is theirs as well.

	The 10th Panchen Lama
		Since photographs of the Dalai Lama have disappeared from monasteries across Tibet, the most common images that you will encounter inside these religious centers are pictures of the late 10th Panchen Lama.
		Because the late 10th Panchen Lama received the title of Vice Chairman of the National People's Congress from the Chinese government, there are no problems displaying his picture, unlike that of the Dalai Lama's.
		Although he is a high-ranking religious leader, the Panchen Lama originally carried no political authority; however, successive Panchen Lamas were used by both Britain and China in their efforts to subjugate the Dalai Lama's government in Lhasa.

		The report was written by the former Panchen Lama, the most important religious leader remaining in Tibet as well as the head of the then Tibetan government, who presented it to China's Premier, Zhou Enlai, on 18th May, 1962.
		In a crucial passage the Panchen Lama makes it clear that these deaths were a result of official policies, not of any natural disasters, as Mao was claiming to his foreign visitors, a claim still accepted by some western sinologists.
		The Panchen Lama, who was only 24 years old at the time, was not a Party member and faced considerable risks, especially since the relatively liberal climate of the previous year had already receded, and since steps had already been taken to address his complaints after he had raise many of them directly with Mao.

	The identification of the Eleventh Panchen Lama by P. Jeffrey Hopkins (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		As Abbot of the Monastery, he was called Panchen, but he came to receive the distinctive title "Panchen Lama" when the Fifth Dalai Lama announced at his teacher's death that his teacher would reappear as a recognizable child-successor.
		The title "Panchen Lama" also was applied retroactively to his teacher's two previous incarnations even though they did not belong to the Tashi Lhunpo Monastery, and thus the new incarnation became the Fourth Panchen Lama.
		However, the Dalai Lama and the delegation from the Panchen Lama's monastery, originally appointed by Beijing, have agreed on the same candidate, and the Dalai Lama has announced the identification, no doubt to pre-empt interference by Beijing, which has not responded favorably to his messages.

		The new Panchen Lama who was living in Tibet with his parents, however, was quickly condemned by the Chinese authorities and then abducted by the Chinese authorities becoming the worlds youngest political prisoner.
		The admission by the Chinese that they are holding the Panchen Lama at least brings an end to the conjecture of whether or not he is still alive but it does nothing to quieten concerns about his safety.
		The Chinese will no doubt continue holding the Panchen Lama whilst attempting to prove to the world that their choice is the true Panchen Lama and who can then be used as a political weapon against His Holiness The Dalai Lama and the Tibetan people in their peaceful and just struggle for an independent Tibet.
