Are you telling me that for the last 900 years or so, monks have been finding what they concider to be the reincarnation of most lama's that are even remotly important due to fraud? The mountain of coincidences which surround these events may point to this assumption if you think 'rationaly' but think what this would involve.
How would one show they were real? Yes, though some undoubtedly believe that kind of bilge, I'm certainly in the camp that would say some of them fake it.
I wouldn't call the stuff you mentioned coincidence, I'd call it simple delusion.
