If the 6th Dalai Lama was the same with the 5th Dalai Lama, then there is only one who had been reincarnating life-after-life. According to his current Title The 14th Dalai Lama (Mongolian for "Ocean of Wisdom"), then, thirteen Dalai Lamas have ruled Tibet before the current Dalai Lama. Pram Nguyen
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.
The 14th Dalai Lama is the current Dalai Lama. He was born in 1935 and he is still alive.
The 14th Dalai Lama is Tenzin Gyatso.

The Dalai Lama won't retire. Like being a Bishop, being a Lama is a job for life. At the Dalai Lama's death, a new Dalai Lama will be chosen by the High Lamas of the Gelugpa tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.
The title "Dalai Lama" is presently granted to each of the spiritual leader's successive incarnations (for example, The 14th Dalai Lama's next incarnation will hold the title "the 15th Dalai Lama"). In the Himalayan tradition, phowa (Tibetan) is the discipline that transfers the mindstream to the intended body. Upon the death of the Dalai Lama and consultion with the Nechung Oracle, a search for the Lama's reincarnation, or yangsi (yang srid), is conducted. Familiarity with the possessions or attributes of the previous Dalai Lama is considered the main sign of the tulku. The search for the reincarnated mindstream typically requires a number of years. The reincarnation is then installed and trained by the other Lamas. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalai_lama
