An overview of the childhood and early education of Dalai Lama, highlighting the experiences that shaped the journey.
The Dalai Lama is the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism's Gelug school. The title originated with Altan Khan, who bestowed it upon Sonam Gyatso in 1578. Sonam Gyatso was subsequently recognized as the 3rd Dalai Lama, with the title being retroactively applied to the first two tulkus in his lineage. Thus, the Dalai Lama represents a lineage of reincarnations central to Tibetan Buddhist tradition.
In 1904, the 13th Dalai Lama underwent his first period of exile to escape the British invasion.
In 1909, the 13th Dalai Lama returned from his first exile after escaping the British invasion.
In 1910, the 13th Dalai Lama underwent his second period of exile to escape a Chinese invasion.
In 1912, the 13th Dalai Lama returned from his second exile after escaping a Chinese invasion.
On July 6, 1935, the 14th Dalai Lama was born on a straw mat in a cowshed to a farmer's family in a remote part of Tibet.
Following the failed 1959 Tibetan uprising, the 14th Dalai Lama sought refuge in India, where he was allowed in by Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru and has since lived in exile in McLeod Ganj, establishing the Central Tibetan Administration.
In 1959, Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, escaped from Lhasa during the Tibetan diaspora and has since lived in exile in Dharamshala, India.
In 1959, the 14th Dalai Lama fled to India, marking the end of the Dalai Lama lineage's rule over Tibet.
In 1969, the 14th Dalai Lama stated that the decision of whether the institution of the Dalai Lama should continue rests with the Tibetan people. He also suggested the possibility of a future vote among Tibetan Buddhists to decide on the recognition of his rebirth.
