		But one out of many generalized aspects of what Tibetan people agree to is that the fifth Dalai Lama's accessions to the throne as the legitimate ruler of Tibet under the Mongol supervision officially declared the Gulag lineage as the fountain head of Tibet's ruling theocracy.
		The possibility of Gelug centrality in the Kashag, either it be in the past into the present surprised me the least as we revere political learning and wisdom of any a Tibetan leader as central basis of judging him to compatible in that position or not.
		The adherents of the Gelug school (it is not politically correct to say 'sect') dominated Tibetan politics after the founding of Gaden Phodrang in 1642 until 1959.

		A college or tratsang (grwa tshang) -- literally, "a grouping of monks" -- in Gelukpa parlance is a subunit of a large monastery.
		More fundamentally, perhaps, the Gelukpa emphasis on philosophical studies has to do with the perceived relationship of these studies to practice (and especially to the practice of Tantra).
		In fact, many early Gelukpas were trained in the academies of the Sakya (sa skya) school, the most famous of which was Sangpu Neuthog (gsang phu sne'u thog).

		I think the reason is that unlike many, or most Gelukpa scholars, he doesn’t look on himself as a Gelukpa even though his main training has been in Gelukpa.
		He is a Gelukpa lama—the Dalai Lama comes out of Drepung monastery—but in his role as Dalai Lama he does not consider himself associated with a sect.
		Most Gelukpa lamas are particularly concerned with discriminating systems, almost to a degree that bothers me. Whereas you can see that his primary concern is with the topics themselves, and he uses many different systems to talk about one topic.
