Tenzin Ösel Hita (born 12 February 1985 in Bubión, Granada, Spain) is a Tibetan Buddhist ''tulku'' and an aspiring filmmaker from Spain. Born Ösel Hita Torres to María Torres and Francisco Hita, he was designated soon after his birth as the ''tulku'' or reincarnation of Thubten Yeshe—making him one of only a handful of Western tulkus—and renamed Tenzin Ösel Rinpoche. For many years "Lama Ösel" was expected to succeed to leadership of the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT), the organization co-founded by Yeshe. As a university student, "Oz" (as he came to be known) gradually distanced himself from the FPMT, and in 2009 made media statements indicating his intention to pursue a life independent of that organization. However, he remained a follower of Tibetan Buddhism and an FPMT supporter, joining that organization's board of trustees in 2010. ==Biography== Hita's parents, María Torres and Francisco Hita, had been students of Lama Yeshe, and the suggestion was raised soon after his birth that Hita might be Yeshe's tulku (reincarnation). Fourteen months later, after certain traditional tests, the Dalai Lama formally recognized him as such. As a child "Lama Ösel" was heavily promoted by the FPMT, and made the subject of a book by Vicki Mackenzie, ''Reincarnation: The Boy Lama'' (Wisdom Publications, 1996). As a youth Hita studied traditional Tibetan subjects at Sera Monastery in southern India, and simultaneously received private tutoring in Western subjects. The question of his Tibetan education, and involvement with the FPMT, was one of the issues surrounding his parents' divorce. At some point Hita gave up his monastic robes and distanced himself from the FPMT in favor of a more ''avant-garde'' lifestyle, for example performing at the 2007 Burning Man festival. He later attended St. Michaels University School, a private high school in Victoria, British Columbia. Once he passed his ASATs in Canada, he moved to Switzerland and studied western philosophy, human rights, French and art. After six months he decided to leave for Italy, ending up in Bologna working with Matteo Passigato, an experienced camera operator. There he spent another 6 months working different jobs related to cinema and TV. Once he came back to Spain he decided to study film. So at the age of 20 he spent two years at the NIC school in Madrid getting his director of cinema diploma. Then another year for director of photography. After that he did a master for documentaries at EIMA which took one more year. In 2011, Osel joined (the board of the FPMT ) and in November 2012 wrote (a "letter to the FPMT family." ) The FPMT has created a (news and information page ) for him. In December 2012 he released his film (Being Your True Nature ). Osel Hita Torres is the fifth of six siblings: Yeshe, Harmonia, Lobstang, and Dolma (all older); and (younger brother) Kunkyen. He is currently living in Spain with his girlfriend Mai Le Turquais. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tenzin Ösel Hita」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
