Je Tsongkhapa (1357–1419) was a preeminent Tibetan Buddhist master whose profound teachings led to the formation of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism. He emphasized disciplined monasticism, rigorous study of the sutras and tantras, and a return to the foundational principles of Indian Mahayana Buddhism. His two main disciples, Gyaltsab Je and Khedrup Je, were instrumental in propagating his teachings, establishing monasteries, and ensuring the enduring legacy of the Gelug tradition throughout Tibet and beyond.
