10 lamas sit Buddhist examination
TEN lamas from monasteries across Tibet are taking their final test in Lhasa, hoping to receive the highest academic degree in Tibetan Buddhism studies.
The five-day test, covering their general knowledge of Tibetan Buddhism, Tibetan language and sutra debate, began on Friday at Ganden Monastery.
“The candidates have stood out from thousands of lamas at 10 different monasteries in Lhasa, Xigaze, Chamdo and Ngaqu,” said Benba, an official with the Tibet branch of the China Buddhist Association.
Candidates who pass the final test will present a formal dissertation at the Jokhang Temple in the spring before being awarded the “Gexe Lharampa,” equivalent to a doctorate, said Benba.
