Good question! The Dalai Lama is a Tibetan Buddhist monk who is the Bodhisattva of Compassion. He is significant to his followers because they consider him to be an enlightened individual who has delayed his own nirvana to help them. I hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

Lhamo Thondup (born name), Tenzin Gyatso (spiritual name) is the current 14th Tibetan Dalai Lama .

Dalai Lama as the word itself is the title of a lineage of religious leaders. As a two-year-old boy was recognized as a reincarnation by the Tibetan monks. At age of four, he was taken from his family to start with preparations for his leadership (Dalai Lama).
