Stories about King Gesar started to originate throughout time among local civilians and absorbed various Tibetan culture and histories, therefore, they become a comprehensive book that can tell about the society in the past. Furthermore, King Gesar Stories is a wealthy storage that contains ancient Tibetan politics, economics, military, folk customs , religion, and culture.This time I presented an initial coverage of ethical behaviours that can be found in the epic King Gesar in my thesis paper. In the first chapter I cited three different ideas that were proposed by other scholars about the question when in the past these stories occurred and thereafter introduced my own idea that goes against the three preceding assumptions. In the second chapter this paper talks generally about ethical behaviour and then separated ethical cultural background from ideology of ethical behaviours and then specifically contrasts ethical behaviours that can be found in the epic "king Gesar" with ethical behaviours during Tibetan kings' ruling and yet then formed my own proposition about what is the ethical behaviour in "King Gesar". In the final chapter this paper talks about the relation between ethical ideology in "King Gesar" and Tibetan society. In other words, it presents personality manifestation of ethical education and ethical behaviours in "King Gesar" and the role that is played in society development by ethical ideology.
