What does 'Dalai' in Dalai Lama mean

The Dalai Lama's succession is a point of contention. China wants to approve the next Dalai Lama. The title 'Dalai Lama' originated in the 16th century. The current Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, was recognized at a young age. He has been in exile in Dharamshala, India, since 1959. The selection of two Dalai Lamas could cause division.
