Tsangyang Gyatso was the sixth Dalai Lama. He was a rebellious Buddhist icon who wrote romantic poems about Buddhism and love that are still popular today.
Born on March 1, 1683, to a serf family in southern Tibet, Tsangyang's life was full of twists and turns. In 1697, he was recognized as the reincarnation of the Fifth Dalai Lama Lozang Gyatso by the Regent Desi Sangye Gyatso of Tibet. In 1705, Tsangyang was dethroned of the position and it is said that he died during the escort in the forty-fifth year of Emperor Kangxi (1706).
