The Enlightened Master Who Shaped Tibetan Buddhism
Tsongkhapa is revered as a Tibetan Buddhist scholar and saint who established the Gelug school. Born in 1357 in Amdo, Tibet, Tsongkhapa was a profound philosopher, meditator, and teacher whose works and teachings transformed the spiritual landscape of Tibetan Buddhism. Tsongkhapa's dedication to rigorous study and practice led to the creation of the Gelug tradition, known for its emphasis on monastic discipline, ethical conduct, and profound philosophical inquiry. His seminal works, such as the "Lamrim Chenmo" (The Great Treatise on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment), continue to guide practitioners on the path to spiritual awakening.

Tsongkhapa Statue Iconography
Tsongkhapa is often depicted wearing the distinctive yellow hat, symbolizing his role as a prominent teacher and his connection to the Triple Jewels: the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha. His hands typically perform the dharmachakra mudra, illustrating his role in teaching and turning the wheel of Dharma. Seated on a lotus throne, the statue represents purity and his attainment of enlightenment, with the lotus symbolizing spiritual purity and detachment from worldly defilements. He often holds a sword, representing wisdom that cuts through ignorance, and a book, symbolizing the Perfection of Wisdom sutras. Tsongkhapa's serene and compassionate expression conveys his deep meditation and enlightened state, serving as an inspiration for practitioners.
