The Tibetan Oracle and the Panchen Lama: Tibetan state oracles have long played a role in identifying reincarnated lamas, including the Dalai and Panchen Lamas. In 1937, the Nechung Oracle guided the search that led to the recognition of the 14th Dalai Lama. Similarly, prophecies involving visions and signs were used to locate the 10th Panchen Lama. While skeptics attribute success to political guidance and educated guesses, believers see spiritual insight. The Chinese government’s later suppression of the current Panchen Lama’s recognition adds controversy. These cases highlight the intersection of faith, politics, and tradition in interpreting prophetic accuracy.
