In Tibetan Buddhism, Tsongkhapa, also known as Je Tsongkhapa, is a highly esteemed teacher who lived from 1357 to 1419. He is regarded as the founder of the Gelug school, which was dominant in Tibet until the Chinese takeover in 1951, and whose de facto leader is the Dalai Lama. Monks who follow the Gelug tradition place a strong emphasis on the importance of education and the preservation of the Buddhist teachings. The core teachings of the Gelug school are those of Tsongkhapa, who placed a strong emphasis on the practice of compassion and the attainment of wisdom. Many monasteries and cultural institutions in Tibet, India, and other nations around the world continue to follow the Gelug tradition.
Gyaltsab Je was Lama Tsongkhapa's most famous student. He oversaw the construction of Gaden Monastery, founded by Lama Tsongkhapa, and was named its second monk after Tsongkhapa. After Lama Tsongkhapa's death, he became the Gaden Tripa, or "holder of the Gaden Throne," the head of the Gelug tradition. Khedrup Je was a prolific author, having written fifty-eight treatises and numerous prayer books. His Holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama, uses an essential scripture on Kalachakra as the basis for the Kalachakra Tantra empowerment he bestows.
