...second highest ranking monk in the Tibetan hierarchy, the Panchen Lama. "He's already indicated that he's ready to consider a number of non-traditional possibilities such as appointing a child successor now or having a lay person follow him around, or even contemplating having a woman successor," says Barnett.
