Orgyen Nyendrub
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.

The Orgyen Nyendrub (o rgyan bsnyan sgrub) is a tantric tradition that was included by Jamgon Kongtrul in his “Eight Chariots of the Practice Lineage” doxography, but which never developed a distinct institutional identity. It is also known as the Dorje Sumgyi Nyendrub (rdo rje gsum gyi bsnyen grub). Kongtrul credited its origin to the thirteenth century when Orgyenpa Rinchen Pel, a disciple of the Drukpa Kagyu Lama Gotsangpa Gonpo Dorje and of the Second Karmapa, Karma Pakshi. Orgyenpa traveled twice to India, first in the north to Oḍḍiyāna, Kashmir and Ladakh, and then later to Vajrāsana. He passed on his teaching to disciples in the Drukpa and Karma Kagyu tradition.
