But if stepping into the Dalai Lama‘s shoes was not a tough enough act already, he has now laid down an extra qualification for whoever should succeed him.
Tibet’s spiritual leader has declared that if it is a woman, she must not just be loving and affectionate – she should also be easy on the eye.
In remarks that have astonished his followers round the world, the 80-year-old Buddhist has said that while he would be happy for a female to take over his role, a plain or ugly candidate would not be suitable.
