The People’s Republic of China has caused irreversible damage to the tulku system. By…

. Tibet has a border of 3300 miles with India. But the Himalayas were a great barrier and as such cultural and military contacts between India and Tibet was minimal.

Tibet has long been a target for its neighboring countries, especially China. Since its foundation in the late 7th century, the former independent state has been invaded, conquered, and used too many times to count.
