Toronto, Oct 25 (IANS) The Dalai Lama, who wound up his three-day visit here by leading prayers at the newly opened Tibetan cultural centre, doesn’t rule out a female successor.

The purpose of the Dalal Lama’s reincarnation is to serve the Buddha, the 14th Dalai Lama told a week-end audience of more than 15,000 at the city’ Rogers Centre.

‘If a female reincarnation is more useful – why not?’ he retorted when asked if the next Dalai Lama could be a female.

In his typical jovial style, he explained the two advantages of having a female Dalai Lama.

The first advantage, he said, is that females are ‘biologically more sensitive about others’ pain” than males.

The other advantage of having a female Dalai Lama is that she would be a lot more attractive than him, he said amid peels of laughter.
