About Je Tsongkhapa with Disciple

Je Tsongkhapa, the revered founder of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism, is often depicted alongside his two foremost disciples, Gyaltsab Je and Khedrup Je, forming a sacred triad that symbolizes the unbroken transmission of wisdom. Born in 1357, Tsongkhapa was a brilliant scholar, meditator, and reformer who emphasized the integration of profound philosophical insight with deep meditative practice. His teachings revitalized monastic discipline and clarified the path of sutra and tantra, earning him recognition as an emanation of the Bodhisattva Manjushri. Gyaltsab Je, known for his sharp intellect and deep devotion, succeeded Tsongkhapa as the second abbot of Ganden Monastery.
