What is a living Buddha in a temple?

"Living Buddha" refers to a person who has made considerable achievements in religious practice and can be reincarnated according to his own wishes.

In Tibetan Buddhism, "living Buddha" refers to a person who has made considerable achievements in religious practice and can be reincarnated according to his own wishes. Later, it is generally said that after the death of the Dalai Lama, he obtained the status of the leader of the temple according to the reincarnation system. The reincarnation of "living Buddha" is the leader inheritance system of Tibetan Buddhism. It is based on Buddhism's doctrine of reincarnation of life and death and soul, and on the economic relationship of temples.

The reincarnation process of a living Buddha is roughly as follows: after a living Buddha dies, according to the clues provided by him before his death, or the clues obtained by the upper layer of the temple through divination, prayer and other ceremonies, he looks for qualified babies in the designated area, and then selects a spiritual child from them through certain methods, and then confirms it through some religious ceremony, so as to reincarnate into a dead living Buddha and inherit the religious status of the dead living Buddha in the temple.
