In 1.18 Five By Five, Cordelia references the Dalai Lama:
Cordy: “Oh, please! He was cursed by gypsies. What’s Angel gonna do? Drag a bunch of them in here to shove a soul down this guy’s throat?”
Wesley: “He may be a ruffian, but he’s already got a soul, and therefore - deep down inside - an urge to do what’s right.”
Marquez: “No way. I’m gone.”
Angel: “Shut up and sit down.”
Cordy: “I guess you’re right, Wesley. He’s just like the Dalai Lama.”
In Tibetan Buddhism, the Dalai Lama is believed to be an incarnation of Avalokitesvara, the Buddha of Compassion; when the Dalai Lama dies, his soul is believed to pass into the body of an infant.
