The Dalai Lama is born as such but must be found. The current Dalai Lama is a reincarnation of the previous Dalai Lama and ultimately the reincarnation or a manifestation of the Bodhisattva of Compassion . He was born two years after his last incarnation ended.
Senior Tibetan monks recieve information during meditation which helps them track down the new Dalai Lama.
