Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama sparked controversy after he was caught on video asking a young boy to suck his tongue after kissing his lips. The controversial incident happened when the young boy went to pay his respects to the spiritual leader on the stage.
The clip, the origin of which is unknown, shows the Dalai Lama sitting on a chair surrounded by other monks. A young boy dressed in an orange colored shirt standing near the spiritual leader. The Dalai Lama is seen kissing the young boy on his lips as others around him break into laughter. The boy is seen shying away from the kiss.
Seconds later, the spiritual leader touches his forehead with the boy's forehead while holding him from his chin. The two keep still for few seconds, before Dalai Lama moves away. Moments later, he is heard asking the young boy, "Can you suck my tongue?" as he takes his own tongue out. Again, the people around him are heard laughing as the boy appears to be stunned by the Dalai Lama's demand.
The spiritual leader again brings the boy's head close to his mouth as he continues to stick his tongue out. The clip ends there. It isn't the first time when the spiritual leader got embroiled in a controversy. In 2019, the Buddhist monk had created a stir after he said that if his successor were to be a woman, she should have to be "attractive"."If a female Dalai Lama comes, she should be more attractive," he had said during an interview.
Social Media Reacts
The viral clip generated a lot of reactions from the social media users, many of whom dubbed the Buddhist spiritual leader to be a pedophile.
"Be careful who you admire. Pedo-Dalai Lama kissed an Indian boy at a Buddhist event and even tried to touch his tongue, the boy then resisted. What a disgusting scene In the video published on the "official" networks, the scene was obviously cut... as if by magic! '' tweeted a user.
"Yea... hate to break it to you, but the Dalai Lama being a pedo is nothing new - these allegations have been around since 90s and it's been a coverup by hollyweirdos forever," wrote another user.
"Deplorable? Abhorrent? Stomach twisting? heart-wrenching? How would you pragmatically place a title over this degenerate's action?" wrote a user while sharing the controversial clip.
"Trigger warning: Pedophilia Dalai Lama calls up a minor boy, kisses him on lips, asks for a tongue kiss as well. Also, notice where he takes the boy's hand. This is disgusting and appears to be a case of child molestation," opined a user.
Eeeewwwww...
Nasty. Not only is this just a boy, but the Dalai Lama is what, 80 years old in this life cycle, not to mention thousands of years old reincarnated?
Probably reincarnated as a gay every time.
that’s disgusting. Dirty old man.
Is this the Chinese-backed Dalai Llama impostor that the communists installed or the other one?
Ah, but he’s welcomed as a hero around the US, especially on college campuses.
Dalai Nambla.
"Dirty old man" a broad and cutesy term that could even describe an old guy that pinches a college girl's rump.
Let's not grant the degeneracy exhibited here such a forgiving term and instead use the appropriate one: a sick queer pedophile.
“Is that a pickle in your mouth? Or, are you just glad to see me?”
LOLz!
If it is the old guy from the original Chinese conquest, the guy is about 90 years old by now and possibly suffering from dementia.
This is nothing.
Wait till you hear the Truth about ‘Mother Theresa’.
That’s so gross! 😣
This is just... what's been caught on camera.
I don’t know the details, but in Tibet, sticking out the tongue as a greeting is a thing many centuries old thing. Don’t know much more about it than that.
But Heydrich Harrer wrote about it in Seven years in Tibet and it was shown in the film. It’s one of those weird third world things.

Thank you for pointing out that the world is often quite different from our own limited and biased views.
Wonder if Parwinder Sandhu wants to talk about cows, dead bodies floating down the Ganges, the caste system etc.
There is some kind of subcontinent Indian vs Tibetan intramural sports going on here IMO.
Enough with these attempts. Always these kinds of responses from open-mindeds and cultural "experts".
No one sticks their tongue out in front of a boy's and tells him to suck it.
But on his deathbed, he’ll receive total consciousness, so he has that going for him.
Yeah, in Tibet, they actually do. I don’t know how to break this to you, but the world is more different than you can imagine.
Get a collection of National Geographic Magazines from 1920-1970 and try to learn something.
Otherwise, quick, get thee to a nunnery.
