The title "Dalai Lama" is presently granted to each of the spiritual leader's successive incarnations (for example, The 14th Dalai Lama's next incarnation will hold the title "the 15th Dalai Lama"). In the Himalayan tradition, phowa (Tibetan) is the discipline that transfers the mindstream to the intended body. Upon the death of the Dalai Lama and consultion with the Nechung Oracle, a search for the Lama's reincarnation, or yangsi (yang srid), is conducted. Familiarity with the possessions or attributes of the previous Dalai Lama is considered the main sign of the tulku. The search for the reincarnated mindstream typically requires a number of years. The reincarnation is then installed and trained by the other Lamas. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalai_lama

The current Buddha is Buddha Shakyamuni or historical Buddha, because it is his doctrine that Buddhists follow, however there are countless Buddhas (enlightened beings) however they have either not taken rebirth on this planet or were deciples of Buddha Shakyamuni. To be honest, I don't think its an actual title like the dalia lama. Anyone can become a Buddha; its simply a term like 'father', 'minister' etc. Answer: "Buddha" is not a title like "Pope" or "King" it indicates a condition of enlightenment. It is not given to a single person and it is not limited to one person. Monotheistic religions sometimes have a problem with the concept that there is no one in charge.
In Mahayana Buddhism any number of enlightened individuals can forego Nirvana to return to the world to help others. Typically the designation of "buddha" or "bohhisattva" is limited to leaders of Buddhist thought or teachers. HH the Dalai Lama and Panchen Lama are examples of many lineages of living Buddhas (tulku) in Tibetan Buddhism.

Choosing a Dalai Lama After the death of a Dalai Lama it has traditionally been the responsibility of the High Lamas of the Gelugpa Tradition and the Tibetan government to find his reincarnation. The High Lamas search for a boy who was born around the same time as the death of the Dalai Lama. It can take around two or three years to identify the Dalai Lama, and for the current, 14th Dalai Lama, it was four years before he was found. There are several ways in which the High Lamas might find out the location of where the next reincarnation will be found. * Dream - One of the High Lamas may dream about some mark or location that will identify the boy. * Smoke - If the previous Dalai Lama was cremated, High Lamas will watch the direction of the smoke and search accordingly. * Oracle Lake - High Lamas go to a holy lake, called Lhamo Lhatso, in central Tibet and watch for a sign from the lake itself. This may be either a vision or some indication of the direction in which to search.The home and village of Tenzin Gyatso, was identified in a vision from this lake. Once the High Lamas have located the home and the boy, they present a number of artefacts which they have brought with them in preparation, to the child. Amongst these artefacts are a number of items that belonged to the deceased Dalai Lama. If the boy chooses the items which belonged to the previous Dalai Lama, this is seen as a sign, in conjunction with all of the other indications, that the boy is a reincarnation. This procedure however, as Tenzin Gyatso has said himself, is not set in stone and if two thirds of the Tibetan people wish to change the method of identifying the next reincarnation, this would be just as valid. The search for the Dalai Lama has usually been limited to Tibet, although the third tulku was born in Mongolia. However, as Tibet has been taken by the Chinese government, Tenzin Gyatso says that if he is reborn it will not be in a country run by the People's Republic of China, or any other country which is not free.

== == His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, is both the head of state and the spiritual leader of Tibet.
In Tibetan Buddhism, the successive Dalai Lamas (taa-la'i bla-ma) form a tulku lineage of Gelugpa leaders which trace back to 1391. Tibetan Buddhists believe the Dalai Lama to be the present incarnation of Avalokitesvara ("Chenrezig" [spyan ras gzigs] in Tibetan), the bodhisattva of compassion. Between the 17th century and 1959, the Dalai Lama was the head of the Tibetan government, controlling a large portion of the country from the capital Lhasa. The Dalai Lamas never had authority over every region of Tibet nor over the other sects of Tibetan Buddhism. The current Dalai Lama (the 14th) is a respected Tibetan Buddhist religious leader and figurehead of the International Tibet Independence Movement; in English, he is often granted the style "His Holiness" (or HH) before his title. The Dalai Lama is often thought to be the head of the Gelug school, but this position officially belongs to the Ganden Tripa (dga' ldan khri pa) (Holder of the Throne of Ganden [dga' ldan], the first monastery established by Tsongkhapa [btsong-ka-pa], founder of the Gelug). The 5th Dalai Lama, with the support of Gushri Khan, a Mongol ruler of Kh�kh Nuur, united Tibet by force. The Dalai Lamas continued to rule in Tibet until the People's Republic of China took direct control of the region in 1959. The 14th Dalai Lama then fled to India and has since maintained a government in exile. See History of Tibet for further information. "Dalai" means "ocean" in Mongolian, and "Lama" (bla ma) is the Tibetan equivalent of the Sanskrit word "guru", and so may mean "teacher" or "monk." The actual title "Dalai Lama" is best translated as "Ocean of Wisdom"; it was first bestowed by the Mongolian ruler Altan Khan upon Sonam Gyatso, an abbot at the Drepung monastery who was widely considered the most eminent lama of his time. Although Sonam Gyatso became the first lama to hold the title "Dalai Lama", due to the fact that he was the third member of his lineage, he became known as the "3rd Dalai Lama". The previous two titles were conferred posthumously upon his earlier incarnations. The title "Dalai Lama" is presently granted to each of the spiritual leader's sucessive incarnations (for example, The 14th Dalai Lama's next incarnation will hold the title "the 15th Dalai Lama"). Tibetans call the Dalai Lama Gyawa Rinpoche (rgya ba rin po che) meaning "Precious Victor," or Yeshe Norbu (ye shes nor bu) meaning "Wisdom Jewel". The 14th Dali Lama, as well as each of his previous predecessors, are considered to be the incarnations of the Buddha of Compassion. Upon the death of the Dalai Lama, his monks institute a search for the Lama's reincarnation, or tulku (sprul sku), a small child. Familiarity with the possessions of the previous Dalai Lama is considered the main sign of the reincarnation. The search for the reincarnation typically requires a few years, which results in a gap in the list of the Dalai Lamas. The reincarnation is then brought to Lhasa to be trained by the other Lamas. Despite its officially secular stance, the government of the People's Republic of China has claimed the power to approve the naming of high reincarnations in Tibet. This decision cites a precedent set by the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, who instituted a system of selecting the Panchen Lama by means of a lottery which utilised a golden urn with names wrapped in barley balls. Recently, this precedent was called upon to name the Panchen Lama, who is empowered to recognize the new Dalai Lama. There is some speculation that with the death of the current Dalai Lama, the PRC will direct the selection of a successor. The current Dalai Lama has repeatedly stated that he will never be reborn inside territory controlled by the People's Republic of China [1], and has occasionally suggested that he might choose to be the last Dalai Lama by not being reborn at all. However, he has also stated that the purpose of his repeated incarnations is to continue unfinished work and, as such, if the situation in Tibet remains unchanged, it is very likely that he will be reborn to finish his work [2]. Additionally, in the draft constitution of future Tibet, the institution of the Dalai Lama can be revoked at any time by a democratic majority vote of two-thirds of the Assembly. It is also worth mentioning that the 14th Dalai Lama has stated "Personally, I feel the institution of the Dalai Lama has served its purpose."[3]. Starting with the 5th Dalai Lama, until the 14th Dalai Lama's exile in 1959, the Dalai Lamas resided in Lhasa in the Potala Palace during winter and in the Norbulingka residence during summer. Since 1959, the Dalai Lama has resided in Dharamsala in Northern India, and the Tibetan Government in Exile has its headquarters there. List of Dalai Lamas 1.

A "Bhikkhu" is a fully ordained male monastic.
A "Bhikkhuni" is a fully ordained female monastic.
Typically, Buddhist clergy are defined by their extensive training, monastic lifestyle, vows, precepts undertaken, and rules of conduct contained in the Vinaya Pitaka (or "Basket of Discipline").
Refuge Vows
The official method of becoming a Lay (unordained) Buddhist is to take Refuge Vows (a.k.a. Triple Gem, Three Jewels). It follows then that Bhikkhus and Bhikkhunis have already taken these vows at some point in their life as a Buddhist. They continue to practice these vows when ordained. Versions vary slightly, but the following is one example of Refuge Vows (in English):
To the Buddha I go for refuge.
To the Dhamma I go for refuge.
To the Sangha I go for refuge.
For the second time, to the Buddha I go for refuge.
For the second time, to the Dhamma I go for refuge.
For the second time, to the Sangha I go for refuge.
For the third time, to the Buddha I go for refuge.
For the third time, to the Dhamma I go for refuge.
For the third time, to the Sangha I go for refuge.
These vows may be taken individually, or requested and received from an ordained Buddhist monastic.
Precepts
Lay Buddhists take Five Precepts along with the Refuge Vows:
1. I undertake the precept to refrain from taking the life of any living creature.
2. I undertake the precept to refrain from taking that which is not given.
3. I undertake the precept to refrain from sexual misconduct.
4. I undertake the precept to refrain from false and harmful speech.
5. I undertake the precept to refrain from consuming intoxicating drink and
drugs which lead to carelessness.
On special observance days, and often in retreats, Lay Buddhists may take or request Eight Precepts. These are the Precepts 1,2,4, and 5 above. Precept 3 (above), however, becomes:
3. I undertake the precept to refrain from any kind of sexual activity.
The following three are added:
6. I undertake the precept to refrain from eating at inappropriate times.
7. I undertake the precept to refrain from entertainment, beautification, and
adornment.
8. I undertake the precept to refrain from lying on a high or luxurious sleeping place.
An Anagarika (Lay Attendant or perhaps "Monastic Steward") in preparation to become ordained as a Bhikkhu or Bhikkhuni. An Upasaka or Upasika (a devout male or female lay follower, respectfully) typically would also undertake the Eight Precepts.
Precepts for Bhikkhus and Bhikkhunis
Ordained monastics are required to take Ten Preceptswhich are constituted of the following (or words to this effect):
1. To refrain from killing living things.
2. To refrain from stealing.
3. To refrain from sexual activity.
4. To refrain from lying.
5. To refrain from taking intoxicants.
6. To refrain from taking food at inappropriate times (after noon).
7. To refrain from singing, dancing, playing music or attending entertainment.
8. To refrain from wearing perfume, cosmetics and decorative accessories.
9. To refrain from sitting on high chairs and sleeping on luxurious, soft beds.
10. To refrain from accepting money.
Vinaya Pitaka or "Basket of Discipline"
In addition to the foregoing, the monastic community in Buddhism is required to follow an extensive "code" of conduct and discipline. There are 227 major rules for Bhikkhus and 311 major rules for Bhikkhunis.
