On November 29, 1995, the Golden Urn Lot-Drawing Ceremony to identify the reincarnated soul boy of the 10th Panchen Erdeni was solemnly conducted in front of a statue of Buddha Sakyamuni at the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa, Xizang, in accordance with Tibetan Buddhist rituals. Gyaltsen Norbu, a boy from Lhari County in Xizang, was selected through the Lot-Drawing Ceremony and confirmed as the reincarnation of the 10th Panchen Erdeni.
