The 13th Dalai Lama, Nechung & the Great Game — What History Misunderstood

Описание: 📌History usually explains power through wars, victories, and conquest.
But Tibet’s most misunderstood moment tells a different story.

In 1904, 13th Dalai Lama left Lhasa — not because faith failed, but because it refused to turn suffering into strategy.

This documentary decodes:

the real role of the Nechung Oracle

why Tibet chose restraint over resistance

and how an invisible imperial rivalry known as The Great Game reshaped spiritual authority into a geopolitical question.

Many still ask: Why didn’t Tibet fight?
But that question misunderstands faith itself.

About the poisoning rumor

Some people claim the 13th Dalai Lama was poisoned or that there was a hidden rift involving Nechung.
This documentary clarifies why such rumors exist — and why there is no historical evidence to support them.

No autopsy was performed in 1933 (normal for Tibet at the time)

His death occurred after years of illness, exile, and political strain

Later instability and trauma caused people to project suspicion backward

Interpretation was confused with causation

This film explains the origin of the rumor, not the rumor itself.

This is not a story of conspiracy.
It is a story of misunderstanding.

And of how belief, power, and fear collided — leaving questions that still echo into modern politics.

This is not a story of defeat.
It is a story of restraint.
