Ngamring Chöde

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The monastery Ngamring Chöde ( Tib . : ngam ring chos sde ) or Ngamring monastery is a Buddhist monastery founded in 1225 of the Sakya school and Jonang tradition of Tibetan Buddhism ( Vajrayana ); it has been part of the Gelugpa since the time of the Fifth Dalai Lama . His monastery school produced many great scholars.

The monastery is located in the Ngamring district of the city of Xigazê in the Tibet Autonomous Region of the People's Republic of China , over 200 km from the Samzhubzê district in the large parish (Chinese) Kaga 卡嘎 镇 in the village (Chinese) Xie 雪村 (Xiecun) east on the mountainside an altitude of 4400 m.

Ngamring was the capital of Chang ( Byang ), one of the thirteen territorial units of ancient Tibet. In 1225 the ruler of Ngamring, Dragpa Dar ( Grags pa dar ), invited the Sakya master Shakya Senge ( Shakya seng ge ) to Ngamring and founded the monastery there. It was later acquired by the governor Tai En Namkha Tenpa ( Ta'i dben Nam mkha 'brtan pa ; born 1316) in 1354 with the help of his teacher, Dölpopa Sherab Gyeltshen ( Dol po pa Shes rab rgyal mtshan ; 1292-1361), expanded. Originally the monastery was a Sakya monastery, but also followed the Jonang tradition and later a Gelugpa college was established here . Ka Ngapa Peljor Sherab ( bka 'lnga pa dpal' byor shes rab ), the teacher of Thangtong Gyelpo ( thang stong rgyal po ; 1361–1485), was the ninth abbot of Ngamring.
