I found this video, “Michael Jackson’s Tulku Found,” pretty entertaining to think about. A tulku is an enlightened Tibetan Buddhist lama who keeps returning to earth to fulfill his boddhisatvic vow to stay around until all beings are free. The Dalai Lama is said to be one. The humorous imlication that MJ is like His Holiness in this way may seem sacrilige to some Buddhists and Michael Jackson fans, but this is one of those satirical videos that gets it right (well, except for MJ’s birth year). Enjoy. And let us know–funny or sacrilige?
