Even the Dalai Lama Casts the Dice
All over the world Dice have been used for Divination purposes. Becoming better known is the Tibetan System called MO, which is in common use and is considered the major form of divination in a culture where the divination of omens and signs in the norm. (The following is an excerpt from His Holiness the Dalai Lama's address to the Tibetan people in Dharamsala on 14 May 1995 regarding the process of his choice for the next Panchen Lama) Issued Dharamsala, 15 June 1995: “Coming to the process of making the final decision, I did a mo (Dice Divination) to find out if the reincarnation was among the candidates whose names had been submitted. The divination was affirmative. After selecting the more likely candidates, I threw the divination dice while pronouncing the young child's name. I did it three times, as is my usual practice. The divinations showed extremely good indications.” The Tibetan divination system (called MO) has been relied upon for centuries to give insight into the future turns of events, undertakings, and relationships. It is a clear and simple method involving two rolls of a die to reveal one of the thirty-six possible outcomes described in the text. This MO, which obtains its power from Manjushri, was developed by the great master Jamgon Mipham from sacred texts expounded by the Buddha. There are several variations, one of which is the grasping of prayer beads, and counting the number of beads from a certain point to determine the “throw” A source for information
