Altan Khan
Some sources say this first meeting between Sonam Gyatso and Altan Khan took place in Amdo or near (lake) Kokonor, rather than in Mongolia itself. This inconsistency may be due to some confusion in the texts or the existence of alternative accounts of this important meeting in the Tibetan literature. Besides, while Altan Khan bestowed the title "Dalai" on Sonam Gyatso, some claim that the latter gave the title of "Brahma", the king of religion, to Altan Khan.
