Sangdak Trinlé Lhundrup
Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia is now 14 years old
Our Encyclopedia recently received a wonderful opportunity for a major renewal on its 14th birthday . After many years of growing our Encyclopedia had become bit slow and sometimes even decided not to answer when people knocked on the door.
A very big thank you and blessings to Dmytro Rudiy (rudiy.nl) for his great work in upgrading the server, website and all of the infrastructure and helping make TBE fast and reliable again for everyone!
We kindly ask our readers to help us cover the cost of this important upgrade and also help with the ongoing costs of keeping the Encyclopedia alive and freely available.

Sangdak Trinlé Lhundrup (Wyl. gsang bdag 'phrin las lhun grub) (1611-1662)
Lama Chökyi Nyima writes:
- Sangdak Trinlé Lhundrup was the son and principal student of Khedrup Do-ngak Tendzin (1576-1628), a holder of the mainstream Dzogchen lineage of the Nyingtik teachings. He received these teachings from his father, as well as transmissions of the kama and terma teachings, and studied with many other Nyingma gurus. Thrinlé Lhundrup also studied with Sarma masters, including the Third Pawo Rinpoché of the Kagyü School, Tsuklak Gyatso (1567-1630/3), from whom he received his novice vows. Sangdak Thrinlé Lhundrup was renowned as a master of Dzogchen and a major figure in that lineage.[1]
He was also the father of Minling Terchen Gyurme Dorje.
