Tshongkhapa (1357–1419), also known as Je Tsongkhapa or Losang Drakpa, was a great Tibetan scholar, yogi, and founder of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism. Renowned for his profound teachings, scriptural clarity, and emphasis on ethical discipline, he revitalized Buddhist study and monastic practice in Tibet. His writings, especially on Madhyamaka philosophy and tantra, remain central to the Gelug tradition.
