Dalaï-lama

What Dominique Pagani says

Dominique Pagani mentions the Dalai Lama briefly and always critically, in sessions devoted to historical amnesia, "left-washing" or anti-Sovietism. He returns several times to the ties between the Tibetan institution and the Third Reich: the Reich was already fascinated by it1, close relations existed in the 1930s2, its power was complicit with the Nazi regime during the war3, and delegations from the Third Reich visited Lhasa4. He also describes him as a "slave-owning feudal lord" backed by the CIA5. He adds that he has been presented as a humanist ever since he began working for that agency4. He calls the prominence given to him today "obscene" and holds that he is as far from the Buddha as the Inquisition was from the Gospel6. From one session to the next, between 2020 and 2025, his position stays the same: he contrasts the Dalai Lama's public image with this political past.
