Potpis

Tenzin Gjatso peti je od šesnaestoro dece u poljoprivrednoj porodici na Tibetu u pokrajini Ćinghaj. Sa dve godine proglašen je kao „Tulku“, reinkarnacija trinaestog Dalaj Lame. Dana 17. novembra 1950, sa petnaest godina, proglašen je čelnikom Tibeta i najvažnijim političkim upravnikom, u vreme kada se Tibet suočavao sa nasilnom okupacijom Narodne Republike Kine. On je takođe je vođa škole Gelug, najnovije škole tibetanskog budizma, koju je formalno vodio Ganden Tripa. Centralna vlada Tibeta, Ganden Fodrang, poverila je Dalaj Lami privremene obaveze do njegovog izgnanstva 1959. godine.

Tenzin Gjatso je Tibet napustio 1959. godine i sklonio se u Indiju nakon neuspeha Tibetskog pokreta otpora gde je pokušavao da uspostavi centralnu tibetsku administraciju, ujedno tražeći način kako da sačuva tibetsku kulturu i prosvetu, a hiljade izbeglica sledilo je Dalaj Lamu u Indiju. On se penzionisao kao politički vođa 2011. godine da bi ustupio mesto demokratskoj vladi. Harizmatični i priznati javni govornik, Tenzin Gjatso je prvi Dalaj Lama koji je otputovao na Zapad gde je nastojao da upozna svet s budizmom i promovisati koncept univerzalne odgovornosti, etike i međureligijske komunikacije.

Godine 1989. dobio je Nobelovu nagradu za mir za svoj nenasilni otpor kineskoj okupaciji.
