The Fifth King
Ngawang Losang Gyatso (1617-1682) was the first to effectively
combine spiritual and secular rulership of Tibet. Among
his many achievements, Ngawang Losang Gyatso united
three provinces of Tibet in 1642, for first time since
mid-ninth century .
Ngawang Losang Gyatso had a profound influence on the
role that the Kings would play as leaders of the Tibetan
people. He emphasized connection between the King and
Avalokitesvara especially in his rebuilding of the Potala.
The Potala is named after a mountain in India, “Lord
of the World” which is considered to be the divine palace
of Avalokitesvara. This emphasis helped establish the
notion that the Kings were indeed incarnations of the
Avalokitesvara.
When Ngawang Losang
Gyatso came to power, he established laws, appointed governors
and ministers, and formed an entire government. He even
established a national dress system of uniforms for officials.
He sent representatives to the border towns of Kham and
areas in central Tibet to reduce heavy taxes, resolve feuding,
establish monasteries, and resettle abandoned areas. Shakabpa
points this out as a demonstration of Ngawang Losang Gyatso
’s political and religious leadership.
Another spectacular achievement ofNgawang Losang Gyatso
is the incredible buildings he had constructed. He founded
the great Labrang monastery in Kham and he built other monasteries
dominating hilltops rather than hidden among mountains and
hills as had been traditionally done. The most outstanding
of these structures is the the Potala Palace which looks
over Lhasa (Snellgrove and Richardson 199).
Ngawang Losang Gyatso also wrote more literature than all
other Kings combined . Such works included a commentary
on the Abhidharmakosa (“Treasury of Philosophical Notions”),
rhetoric and astrology, a treatise on monastic discipline,
guide to Jo-lehang, a history of Tibet, and a book about
the composition of poetry.

Fu Dogs
Guardian lions, also called Fu Dogs or Foo
Dogs, and called Shi (獅) in Chinese or Ra shi da, are powerful mythic
protectors that have traditionally stood in front of Chinese imperial
palaces, emperors' tombs and government offices.
Since the Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD), imperial guardian lions were
placed at the entrances to important official buildings and gates,
until the end of the empire in 1911. They are still common, popularized
as decorative and symbolic
elements at the entrances to restaurants, hotels, and other structures.
The lions are generally present in pairs.
To the intruder's right will be the male lion, with his right paw
on a globe, representing his "feeling the pulse of the earth".
To the intruder's left will be the female, essentially identical
in
appearance, but playing with her single cub with her left paw. The
male of the pair is said to guard the structure, while the female
fu dog protects those dwelling inside.
Chinese Dragon:
The Chinese dragon (Traditional Chinese:
龍; Simplified Chinese: 龙; pinyin: lóng Cantonese: loong; Hokkien:
dieng, leng) is a mythical creature. Long a potent symbol of auspicious
power in Chinese folklore and art, it is the embodiment of the concept
of yang and associated with the weather and water as the bringer
of rain.
The dragon is sometimes in the West viewed
as a national emblem of China. However, this usage within both the
People's Republic of China and the Republic of China on Taiwan is
extremely rare, both because the dragon has monarchist connotations
which run counter to recent Chinese ideologies and because the dragon
has aggressive, warlike connotations which Chinese governments dislike.
It is for the latter reason that the giant panda is far more often
used within China as a national emblem than the Chinese dragon.
However even though Dragon lost it symbol
as China, it is still a respected creature in Chinese cultural daily
life. It is a taboo to disfigure a depiction of Dragon, for example
when U.S sportswear giant Nike made an advert campaign for their
brands, a basketball player is shown slaying a Dragon (amongst beating
up an old Kung Fu master). This advert was banned immediately from
the Chinese government after public outcry for disrespect of the
Dragon.
Also a lot of Chinese proverbs
and idioms still use Dragons, one example "Looking forward
their child turn to a Dragon".
