You mentioned that the Dalai Lama said it isn't a religion. His sect seemed relevant.
I don't think so... I've never heard "holy" used in a way that didn't involve deities, cussing, or Batman. The Dalai Lama can choose his honorific, and if he (or his English speaking followers) felt it was a poor translation I'm sure they could come up with another.
Of course, it's possible to follow Buddhist teachings without buying into the reincarnation stuff. Jefferson did a similar thing with the Jefferson Bible.
