Diki Tsering
Diki Tsering (; – 12 January 1981) was the mother of three reincarnated Rinpoches/Lamas: Lhamo Thondup, Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th reincarnated Dalai Lama; Thubten Jigme Norbu, the 6th reincarnated Taktser Rinpoche; and Tendzin Choegyal, the 16th reincarnated Ngari Rinpoche. In article The Discourse of Lama, Qianlong Emperor condemned families with multiple reincarnated Rinpoches/Lamas. In Diki's biography ''Dalai Lama, My Son: A Mother's Story'', after the murder of Reting Rinpoche in 1947 she mentioned that "word started to spread that His Holiness hamo Dhondupwas not the real Dalai Lama, that a mistake had been made." To put this rumor to rest for the regent Taktra and the Kashag, it was decided to use a lot-drawing process by placing both names in a vessel before the image of Je Rinpoche to confirm the real 14th Dalai Lama. "This was done three times. My son's name leaped out three times, and the regent Taktra and the Kashag had nothing more to say for themselves." Tibet e ...

The Discourse Of Lama
The Discourse of Lama《喇嘛说》is an article written by the Qianlong Emperor in the 57th year of the Qianlong era of the Qing dynasty (1792) to elaborate on the policy (Article One of The 29-Article Ordinance for the More Effective Governing of Tibet) of using lot-drawing process with Golden Urn to pick reincarnated lamas including the Dalai Lama and Panchen Lama.
