The 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, was born in Taktser, a small village in northeastern Tibet, in 1935. This location is significant as it reflects the deep cultural and spiritual heritage of Tibetan Buddhism, which is central to the Dalai Lama's identity and responsibilities. Taktser's remote setting symbolizes the traditional Tibetan way of life, contrasting with the challenges faced by Tibet under Chinese rule. Moreover, his birthplace has become a site of pilgrimage for followers, emphasizing the Dalai Lama's role as a spiritual leader and symbol of Tibetan resilience.

How was the dalai lama chosen?

The Dalai Lama is not chosen to become what he is, (Like Popeye) he is what he is and has been that for fourteen reincarnations. The position is not an elected or appointed office. In Buddhism an enlightened person can refuse to enter Nirvana, choosing instead to return to the cycle of death and rebirth to help others become enlightened. The current Dalai Lama is a reincarnation of the previous Dalai Lama and ultimately the reincarnation or a manifestation of the Bodhisattva of Compassion, Avalokiteśvara. After the death of the existing Dalai Lama the problem is to find where the reincarnation has occurred. This is usually expected to be in Tibet. The search is the responsibility of the High Lamas of the Gelugpa Tradition and the government of Tibet. It can take around two or three years (or more) to identify the new incarnation of the Dalai Lama. The High Lamas conduct several rituals to increase the odds of finding the reincarnation quickly. They look for omens and seek hintsin their dreams. They also devise tests for candidates they feel may be the reincarnation. Familiarity with the possessions of the previous Dalai Lama is considered the main sign of the reincarnation. Having been found, the child is brought to Lhasa (or a similar location) for training in Buddhist thought and knowledge The current Dalai Lama is was born Tenzin Gyasto
