The Dalai Lama is the spiritual head of Buddhism in Tibet, which China regards as its western province. More importantly for this issue, the Dalai Lama has become a symbol of claims for Tibetan independence, which the Chinese government naturally resists. The Dalai Lama has recently said that he no longer wants independence for Tibet and merely wants to negotiate a level of autonomy for Tibet, within sovereign China. He has also said that he sees economic benefits for the Tibetan people being citizens of China. However, the Chinese government remains suspicious of his real intentions and refuses to negotiate with him.

What is Dali lama religion important to?
To be honest there is no such thing as Dalai Lama religion. The Dalai Lama between the 17th century and 1959 was in fact the title of the head political figure of the Tibetan government as well as the country's foremost religious figure. The current Dalai Lama is the 14th Dalai Lama in the line. However, each new Dalai Lama is chosen as being seen as a reincarnation (born again) of the previous Dalai Lama. The religion you may be thinking of is Buddhism; the religion practiced by the Dalai Lama and his followers.
