The spiritual and temporal ruler of Tibet is the Dalai Lama whom the Tibetans believe to be the incarnation of the god Chen-re-zi (Avalokiteswara).

He is addressed in English as His Holiness, and is called by Tibetans Gyawa Rimpoche (Precious Ruler, or Precious Conqueror), Kyamgon Rimpoche (Precious Protector), or Kundun (The Presence). The thirteenth Dalai Lama died in December and, until his re-incarnation was discovered some six years later, the Incarnate Lama of Reting Monastery was appointed Regent.
The late Dalai Lama, Ngawang Lobzang Thupten Gyatso, was born in or early , the son of humble parents in the district of Takpo, to the south of the Tsangpo River.

Upon the death of the Dalai Lama and consultation with the Nechung Oracle , a search for the Lama's yangsi , or reincarnation , is conducted. Invited to become the Abbot he declined, already being Abbot of Drepung and Sera, but left his deputy there in his stead.

He crossed the India frontier on the 21st February , arriving at Darjeeling on the 3rd March , and continued to reside in Darjeeling in a house placed at his disposal by the Indian Government, and at Kalimpong until July when he returned to Tibet. After his flight from Lhasa the Chinese Emperor formally deposed him but after the Revolution the Imperial decree was rescinded by the new Republican Government.

While in India in March the Dalai Lama visited Lord Minto at Calcutta and made a pilgrimage to Bodh-Gaya, Benares, Rajagir, Gauhati, Kashinagara, Balarampur, and Lumbini in Nepal. His residence in India produced a lasting effect on his mind, and greatly enlarged his heroism.

Over time the region's Mongols were completely Tibetanized but continued to enjoy prestige among the Tibetans as Gushri Khan's descendants and played a significant role in the Gelug Order's expansion in Amdo. That is not true. In other projects.

He pays great attention to the details of administration, allowing no orders of importance to issue without his personal approval. He is reconciled to European modes of living and has occasionally taken food with Europeans. His return to Tibet was the occasion of numerous popular demonstrations which indicated that his temporary withdrawal from Tibet had in no way impaired his position in the minds and hearts of Tibetans.

In August he offered to place 1, troops at the disposal of Government for the war with Germany.

The rule of the late Dalai Lama had been autocratic, and consequently on his death there was a period of confusion and uncertainty. But the Regent, Prime Minister and Kashag have gradually established themselves firmly in the direction of affairs.
