FROM next month, Tibetan living Buddhas will have to apply for reincarnation to the Chinese Government.

The new rules are "an important move to institutionalise the management of reincarnation of living Buddhas," the Xinhua news agency said.

Apparently you can't progress into your next life without someone feeling like you are trying to take their thunder.  What's next?  All Neapolians must declare themselves?
