As of 11 April 2015 there have been about 138 reported self-immolation in Tibet since 27 February 2009, when Tapey, a young monk from Kirti Monastery.
He set himself on fire in the marketplace in Ngawa City, Ngawa County, Sichuan China.
In 2011 a wave of self-immolation by Tibetans in Chinese-occupied Tibet, as well as in India and Nepal, occurred after the self-immolation of Phuntsog of 16 March 2011 in Ngawa County, Sichuan. Protests are ongoing.
Most of the protesters have been monks and nuns, or ex-monks. Some of the protesters who set themselves on fire were teenagers.
Self-immolation protests have become less frequent in 2013 and 2014 but these and other protests are taking place over a widening area of Tibet. Some Tibetans have also set themselves alight outside Tibet and China.
Most such incidents have taken place in China's Sichuan province.Especially around the Kirti Monastery in Ngawa city, County, Sichuan in Gansu Qinghai and Tibet Autonomous region. Self-immolation protests by Tibetans also occurred in India and Kathmandu, Nepal.
Although many monks and nuns have set themselves alight, most self-immolation protesters were not from religious institutions.
They include teachers, students and herdsmen, as well as mothers and fathers.The youngest was just 15 years old.
People fight in the name of their religion,

Om Mani Pad me Hum, Om Mani Pad me Hum.
may my prayers and thoughts are with you !
Please stop self immolation, stop self scarifying. By doing this extremist self destruction will not end the crisis completely and against the teaching of Buddha.
The free Tibet campaign should be in a non violent, non extremism ways and in a true Buddhism path. Please stop self-immolation
PLEASE STOP SELF-IMMOLATION,
PLEASE STOP SELF-DESTRUCTION.
PLEASE STOP SELF-SCARIFYING.

People fight in the name of their religion,
People die in the name of their religion,
But many never follow and practice in the name of their religion's teaching.

Nagarjuna's Dedication of Merit:-
So nam di yi tham chay zig pa nyi
Thob nay nye pa'i dra nam pham jay nay
Kye ga na chi'i ba lab thrug pa yi
Si pa'i tso lay dro war drol war shog.
By this merit may we obtain omniscience then.
Having defeated the enemies wrong-doings.
May we liberate migrators from the ocean of existence. With its stormy waves of birth, old age, sickness and death.
