A Geshe La is a title given to a scholar who has completed extensive studies in Tibetan Buddhism, particularly in the Gelug school, and has passed rigorous examinations, often serving as a teacher or spiritual guide. In contrast, the Dalai Lama is a specific title held by the spiritual leader of the Gelug school and is considered a manifestation of the Bodhisattva of compassion, Avalokiteshvara. The Dalai Lama is a highly revered figure and has broader responsibilities, including promoting peace and compassion worldwide, whereas a Geshe La primarily focuses on academic and monastic teachings.

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 religion you may be thinking of is Buddhism; the religion practiced by the Dalai Lama and his followers.
