29-Article Ordinance for the More Effective Governing of Tibet

The 29-Article Ordinance for the More Effective Governing of Tibet (Chinese: 欽定藏內善後章程二十九條[1]) was an imperial decree published in 1793 by the Qianlong Emperor in the Qing Dynasty, the last imperial dynasty of China.[2][3]

In 1792, the Qianglong emperor published an article known as A Discourse on Lamas (Chinese: 喇嘛說) that described the history of lamas and the reincarnation system. In it he described how the Golden Urn system was invented and said it would be a more fair mechanism of selecting the Dalai Lama than identifying the reincarnated Lama using only one person.[4][5]
