Features: Essentially, the emergence and development of the Tibetan Buddhist reincarnation system of living Buddhas are closely related to the cultural, religious, historical, and economic background of Tibetan society during specific periods. Its emergence was a need to inherit the inherent political, religious, and economic power of religious sects and monasteries, and it was in line with the socio-historical development of the time. In the ancient myths and legends of the Tibetans, the origin of humans is explained through heaven, but more importantly, it is essential to understand the process of the emergence, trials, and development of Buddhism in Tibet. Although this explanation may be irrational, its mythic charm is captivating yet possesses a certain logic. Who are the important figures in Tibetan Buddhism that have had a significant impact? What roles do the renowned monks and masters play in it? In Buddha's Realm, it describes a world of the Buddha, the realm of a great monk, and a world where the Yarlung Tsangpo River merges with the Yangtze, Yellow Rivers.
