Bogdo Gegen (English spelling)
The most important living Buddha in Outer Mongolia and the common name of the Yellow Hat (Gelu) lama. Bogdogeghen means "Holy Light" in Mongolian. His official title is Rje btsun dam pa khu tug tu (The Brahmin Danbahu Tutu). Bogdogeghen is said to be the incarnation of the Tibetan monk Tāranātha. The first Bogdogeghen (1635-1723) was born as the son of Toshet Khan, a great lord of the Khalkha tribe in Outer Mongolia. When Outer Mongolia was submitted to the Qing Dynasty in 1691 (the 30th year of the Kangxi era), he actively cooperated with the Qing Dynasty and became highly valued by the Qing Dynasty.
