Hoe kan het dat de arrogante collega, die iedereen slecht behandelt, toch succes heeft en de carrièreladder beklimt? Hoe kan het dat de moeder, die altijd taart aan de buren geeft, haar kind verliest? Het boeddhisme biedt een andere verklaring: Karma.

Tibetan Buddhists have, for well over a millennium, been meticulously following the tradition of finding, recognizing, enthroning, training, and venerating these revered figures who provide teachings of liberation for both monks and laypeople.
