What were the Dalai Lamas three belongings that the two year boy picked out?

Who chooses the next Dalai Lama and what is the monk called?

Choosing a Dalai Lama After the death of a Dalai Lama it has traditionally been the responsibility of the High Lamas of the Gelugpa Tradition and the Tibetan government to find his reincarnation. The High Lamas search for a boy who was born around the same time as the death of the Dalai Lama. It can take around two or three years to identify the Dalai Lama, and for the current, 14th Dalai Lama, it was four years before he was found. There are several ways in which the High Lamas might find out the location of where the next reincarnation will be found. * Dream - One of the High Lamas may dream about some mark or location that will identify the boy. * Smoke - If the previous Dalai Lama was cremated, High Lamas will watch the direction of the smoke and search accordingly. * Oracle Lake - High Lamas go to a holy lake, called Lhamo Lhatso, in central Tibet and watch for a sign from the lake itself. This may be either a vision or some indication of the direction in which to search.The home and village of Tenzin Gyatso, was identified in a vision from this lake. Once the High Lamas have located the home and the boy, they present a number of artefacts which they have brought with them in preparation, to the child. Amongst these artefacts are a number of items that belonged to the deceased Dalai Lama. If the boy chooses the items which belonged to the previous Dalai Lama, this is seen as a sign, in conjunction with all of the other indications, that the boy is a reincarnation. This procedure however, as Tenzin Gyatso has said himself, is not set in stone and if two thirds of the Tibetan people wish to change the method of identifying the next reincarnation, this would be just as valid. The search for the Dalai Lama has usually been limited to Tibet, although the third tulku was born in Mongolia. However, as Tibet has been taken by the Chinese government, Tenzin Gyatso says that if he is reborn it will not be in a country run by the People's Republic of China, or any other country which is not free.

When does the Dalai Lama become what he is?

The Dalai Lama does not become what he is, (Like Popeye) he is what he is and has been that for fourteen reincarnations. In Buddhism an enlightened person can refuse to enter Nirvana, chosing instead to return to the cycle of death and rebirth to help others become enlightened. 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. Having been found, the child is brought to Lhasa (or a similar location) for training in Buddhist thought and knowledge

Why did the Dalai Lama get his name?

Back when Tibet came under the rules of the Mongolian Khans, Tibetan Buddhism was the state religion and the Mongolian emperor appointed his favorite (personal) lama as the political leader of Tibet. Until recently, the position held both spiritual and political power.After the death of a high lama, a search is often conducted to find the reincarnation. As the current Dalai Lama has described, this process is challenging and often political in nature. He has initiated changes to reduce the politicization of the process. The current Dalai Lama is was born as Lhamo Thöndup, but his name was changed upon being recognized as the Dalai Lama.

Who was the ninth Dalai Lama?

The 9th Dalai Lama's religious name was Lungtok Gyatso. He died at only 9 years of age, and was the first of three Dalai Lamas to die before reaching 20. He was made the Dalai Lama in 1907 when he was just 1 year old. Thomas Manning, an English sinologist who was famous for being one of the first people to study Chinese culture in great depth, and was the first Englishman allowed to enter Lhasa, visited the 9th Dalai Lama in 1812, when he was 7. He said, 'The lama's beautiful and interesting face engrossed all my attention,' Manning wrote. 'He had the simple, unaffected manners of a well-educated princely child. His face was, I thought, affectingly beautiful. He was of a gay and cheerful disposition. I was extremely affected by this interview with the lama. I could have wept through strangeness of sensation.' The Dalai Lama died from a severe cold on 6th March 1815, and as a result the whole of China was plunged into (mental) depression until the reincarnation of the next Dalai Lama, Tsultrim Gyatso.
