Lobsang Samten Taklha (Tibetan: སྟག་ལྷ་བློ་བཟང་བསམ་གཏན, 1933 – 28 September 1985) was a Tibetan politician and one of three elder brothers of the 14th Dalai Lama. In 1978 he helped found and eventually became the director of the Tibetan Medical Institute in Dharamsala, India, where the Dalai Lama still lives in exile.[1][2]
