July 6th is the birthday of the one born as Lhamo Döndrup recognized at the age of two, and formally installed at the age of fifteen as the leader of the Geluk school of Tibetan Buddhism and therefore also the spiritual leader of Tibet.  Upon his enthronement, he was renamed Jetsun Jampel Ngawang Lobsang Yeshe Tenzin Gyatso: Holy Lord, Gentle Glory, Compassionate Defender of the Faith who is an Ocean of Wisdom.   He is referred to as Yizhin Norbu Rinpoche, the Precious Wish-fulfilling Jewel.  He is known around the world as His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.

Especially on this day, it is beneficial to make offerings and to offer prayers for his long life.

In honor of HH the Dalai Lama's 84th Birthday

In this world encircled by blue sky and decorated by sparkling stars,
You, repository of greatest goodness sharing that without regret
Tenzin Gyatso, focus of the power of compassion from Chenrizik
Please remain in your compassionate vow until all are free. ...
