Tibet added to "tantrism" the primitive animistic religions of the Tibet, the magic "bon", and some "Mahayana" doctrines to create the most openly occultist of all Eastern religions.

- On top of it created the super-authority of the "Dalai Lama", a god- on-earth, heading a hierarchy of priests, destroying the "religion without authority" that Gautama the Buddha proposed... however this Dalai Lama, the best recognized figure of Buddhism, only represents 6% of Buddhism, and most of it scattered around the world, because many monks followed the example of the Dalai Lama who fled the Communists in 1959 to India, in Dharamsala, taking 110,000 refugees with him.

- The theory of the reincarnated Lamas (bodhisattvas), is that the soul of a death Lama passes to a new boy. The current Dalai Lama, the 14th reincarnation, was chosen at age two.

- The huge monasteries in Tibet are now mostly empty, for tourists attractions... so, nobody knows how many are left of the 6 million citizens who adored the Dalai Lama as a god-king, bowed before the sight of his portrait and prostrated outside his Jokka Temple.

"Bon":

The native religion of Tibet, was largely magical, with many rites of redemption from demonic forces, with animal and human sacrifices, and many superstitions, divinations, witchcraft... and it is basic to Tibet Buddhism.

-Buddhism came to Tibet in 600 AC, during the reign of Sron. Tantric master Padmasam subdue the Bon spirits and demons to the service of Buddhism. In 1042 AC Buddhism became the dominant religion with the arrival of the Indian master Atisa... The growing monastic establishments acquired temporal power, and intense rivalries arose... and in the 17th century the political war ended with the victory of the Mongol Kahn forces, who awarded the country of Tibet to the Dalai Lama as a religious gift.

The "sems":

The Tibet Buddhism is centered on the "sems", the mind element which is exalted in a "body of sublime knowledge". The diamond body of Tantrism may take many years to obtain, under a teacher, without which the teachings would be lost. The students are promised "instant enlightenment" and Buddhahood after completing "only" seven future rebirths.

- The hand drum, the bell, the hand prayer wheel and the 27 bids rosary are used to unite with the god and goddesses and to expel the demons...

- The "Tibetan Book of the Dead" or "Bardo Thobal" has had great influence among American's youth: It is an occult guide to expel demons, spirits and powers of witchcraft, and to obtain hallucinogenic visions similar to those of LSD.

- The Tibetan Crown Ceremony performed by His Holiness Gyalwa Karmapa in America consisted of his holding a black hat over his head for 2.28 minutes...and the youth got crazy!...

- The first Western Buddhist University is in Boulder, Co. led by the Tibetan exile Rimpoche.
