Original Note:
The Lama's comment "Suck My Tongue" is likely him saying 'Che Le Sa' (Eat my Tongue) in broken English. It comes from affectionate greetings between Tibetan elders and children. This does not make him a child predator. https://www.vice.com/en/article/jg5854/tibetans-explain-what-suck-my-tongue-means-dalai-lama-viral-video https://twitter.com/TibetCollective/status/1646516453015953413 https://www.vice.com/en/article/n7evaw/dalai-lama-suck-my-tongue-video-tibet-china
