Is there evidence that Jesus was a Dalai Lama?
score:6
Accepted answer
No.
From Wikipedia:
Dalai Lama (UK: /ˈdælaɪ ˈlɑːmə/, US: /ˈdɑːlaɪ ˈlɑːmə/;[1][2] Standard Tibetan: ཏཱ་ལའི་བླ་མ་, Tā la'i bla ma, [táːlɛː láma]) is a title given by the Tibetan people for the foremost spiritual leader of the Gelug or "Yellow Hat" school of Tibetan Buddhism, the newest of the classical schools of Tibetan Buddhism.
Reading further shows that the first Dalai Lama lived from 1391-1474, and wasn't even named the Dalai Lama until 1578.
The concept of the Dalai Lama seems to have only been around for the last millennium. Furthermore, Tibetan Buddhism was not formally established until the 7th-9th century. Since this is well documented, and there isn't a historical dispute for the time of Jesus' life, there is no evidence that Jesus was a Dalai Lama.
If this isn't a satisfactory answer, one could also write a lengthy answer about how different Buddhism is from the teachings of Jesus. Or start here Did the teachings of Buddha influence Jesus?
