One of the things that i ve learned since i joined this forum is how to differenciate between rebirth (Buddhism) and reincarnation (Hinduism), However, the stories i ve read and the movies i ve watched in relation to the rebirth of some Lamas in Tibet made me confused.
hi again, Bundokji

on You Tube, at the top of the list under 'Buddhism', there is a lecture by the Dalai Lama called 'Introduction to Buddhism'

in this lecture, the Dalai Lama states we should never think the Buddha contradicted himself when some of his teachings seem to be contradictory

the Dalai Lama explains the Buddha simply gave different teachings based on the different dispositions of different audiences

similarly, in the original Buddhist scriptures, the Buddha taught that he taught two kinds of Right View

kind regards
