[Buddha-l] The Dalai Lama's own Vinaya?

[Ngawang Dorje]

Hi,
 
I believe Tibetan Buddhist, including the Dalai Lama follow the Mula-Sarvastivada Vinaya.
 
Best wishe,
Rahula

As the Dalai Lama refers to himself as being 'just a simple monk', I was wondering whether the Dalai Lama follows the 'standard-for-all-monks-and-nuns' Vinaya or that he, in his capacity of political leader, has a Vinaya adapted to his function. If there is some adapted version for his political function, does that grant him political power whatsoever?

Thanks,

Stefan
