iv Acknowledgment

Every beginning has an end. This is almost an adventure in which countless challenges
and astonishing things from all aspects of life arose, which I never thought could happen
but they did. I should like to take this chance to express my sincere gratitude to all those
who helped me, either directly or indirectly, in persevering through this PhD bar do. First,
I owe a great debt of thanks to Prof. Peter Schwieger, who benevolently accepted me as
his PhD student in my most desperate time. The instructions that he has provided are
always precise, sharp and come directly to the point. And yet, he allows his students to
enjoy freedom as vast as the open sky. The seminars that I attended in these years here in
Bonn have broadened my view and understanding of Tibetan Studies. I had great time
learning nag rtsis with Prof. Dieter Schuh. I appreciate his warm regards and precious
suggestions for my research, which are great help e
