Only Tibetan Buddhists believe the Dalai Lama to be one of innumerable incarnations of Avalokiteśvara.

Jebus has no clue by any potential what he's asserting, simply by fact Buddhism has deities (referred to as Devas or Bodhisattva, reckoning on the condition) yet no longer interior the classic experience. many Vajrayana Buddhists worship deities they suspect will help them alongside the path to Nirvana. there is not any all effective all encompassing author deity in spite of the undeniable fact that. Gods like each little thing else in Buddhism (shop liberation) are impermanent, and are in basic terms noticeably reincarnated beings who've long gone up cycles adequate to be interior the greater 9 nation-states of life. many Buddhists worship the Dalai Lama, as he's a reincarnation of Chenrezig, or Avalokitesvara, who's the Bodhisattva (study: god) of Compassion.
