Je Tsongkhapa, whose ordained name was Losang Dragpa, was a great
14th century Tibetan Buddhist Master who promoted and developed the
Kadampa Buddhism that Atisha had introduced three centuries earlier.
His appearance in Tibet had been predicted by Buddha himself. Je Tsongkhapa patiently taught the Tibetans everything they needed for their spiritual development, from the initial step of entering into a spiritual practice to the ultimate attainment of Buddhahood. This was a golden age in Tibet, and thousands of Tibetans were inspired by Je Tsongkhapa's example of pure moral discipline, compassionate way of life, and profound, liberating wisdom. |
 Je Tsongkhapa, revived Kadampa Buddhism in Tibet |
