Hyderabad: A Mongolian boy, born in the United States has been titled the 10th Khalkha Jetsun Dhampa Rinpoche, the third highest rank in Tibetan Buddhism, by spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, says a report. A photograph showed the Dalai Lama with an eight-year-old boy taking part in an event held on March 8 in Himachal Pradesh's Dharamshala, where the Buddhist leader lives in exile.
The picture shows the child's hair close-cropped and the lower part of the face covered with a mask. His name has not been announced yet. The US-born child had a twin brother and is a son of a professor at a University and the grandson of a former Mongolian member of Parliament. The unveiling ceremony was taken place in the presence of around 600 followers. However, the real identity of the child has not been revealed yet by the Dalai Lama institution in Dharamshala.
