Lhamo Dhondub
Lhamo Dhondub, known as the 14th Dalai Lama, is the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism and a global advocate for peace and non-violence. Born on July 6, 1935, in a small village near Tibet, he was recognized as the reincarnation of his predecessor at just two years old and was enthroned before his fourth birthday. After fleeing to India in 1959 to escape Chinese rule, he became a prominent figure advocating for the rights and culture of the Tibetan people, receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in 1989 for his commitment to non-violent resistance. As he turns 90, he has confirmed the continuation of the Dalai Lama institution, addressing concerns over his succession.
