Tsongkhapa (1357–1419), also known as Je Tsongkhapa or Losang Drakpa, was a renowned Tibetan Buddhist master, philosopher, and founder of the Gelug school, which remained the dominant school in Tibet until China's takeover in 1951. His teachings place a strong emphasis on monastic discipline, sutra study, and the cultivation of wisdom through reasoning. The Dalai Lama is regarded as the de facto leader of this school.
