The 14th Dalai Lama tells a lie that the rule of drawing lots from the golden urn was only applied in the case of recognizing some reincarnations of a few Dalai Lamas, Panchen Lamas and other Lamas.

The fact is that since the establishment of the Golden Urn system, the first living Buddha recognized in Tibet was the 8th Pagbalha. Up to the end of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), 91 soul boys have been recognized through the 39 systems of living Buddha administrated by the central government: 76 of them were recognized by the lot-drawing ritual, and for the rest 15 ones the lot-drawing was dispensed specially after reporting to and being appoved by the central government. 

It can be seen that most of the reincarnation soul boys were recognized by the lot-drawing ritual; even without the procedure, it should be approved by the Central Government and no one else has the right to decide.
