'''Jamyang Mipham Namgyal Gyatso Rinpoche''' (1846-1912) ranks alongside [[Longchen Rabjam]] and [[Tsongkhapa]] as one of Tibet's most prolific and influential masters. His presentation of the [[Nyingma]] School's unique approach to the view and practice of Buddhism, and in particular the relationship between [[Madhyamaka]] and the [[Great Perfection]], has had an enormous impact on the past few generations of Tibetan Buddhist scholars and practitioners. Namdrolling Monastic College, currently the largest functioning [[Nyingma]] educational institution, includes twenty of his texts in its curriculum. By comparison, only five texts by [[Longchenpa]] are included and only one by [[Rongzom Mahapandita]].

Mipham is a word and a name used often throughout Tibetan history, as such it is common that you not find who or what your looking for under such a general search as "Mipham". Here is the list of definitions for the RY2003 Dictionary and then a list of the more famous figures that were named Mipham.

Mipham's primary teachers were [[Patrul Rinpoche]] and [[Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo]], both incarnations of the tertön [[Rigdzin Jigme Lingpa]]. Khyentsé Rinpoche requested Mipham to preserve the [[Nyingma]] teachings through teaching, debate, and composition—a task in which he admirably succeeded. About his remarkable student, Khyentsé remarked: “In this time, there is no one else on earth more learned than Lama Mipham.”

He excelled not only in study and teaching, however, but in practice as well. The numerous retreats he completed were always accompanied by miraculous signs of accomplishment.

−
Mipham Rinpoche’s collected writings comprise twenty-seven volumes and cover a vast array of topics. Among his most influential writings are The [[Speech of Delight]]—a commentary on [[Shantarakshita]]'s [[Ornament of the Middle Way]], [[Gateway to Knowledge]]—which provides an overview of the Buddha’s teachings, and [[Beacon of Certainty]]—an elucidation of the view of the Great Perfection and its relationship to the Middle Way teachings.

Mipham’s most important students were [[Dodrupchen Rinpoche]], the Fifth [[Dzogchen Rinpoche]], Gemang Kyabgon, [[Khenpo Pema Dorje|Khenpo Padmavajra]], [[Gyaltrul Rinpoche|Palyul Gyaltrul]], Karma Yangtrul, [[Tai Situ Rinpoche|Palpung Situ Rinpoche]], Ling Jetrung, [[Adzom Drukpa]], Tokden [[Shakya Shri]], [[Jamyang Loter Wangpo|Ngor Ponlob]], and others. The great tulkus of [[Sechen Monastery]], [[Dzogchen Monastery]], [[Kathok Monastery]], [[Palyul Monastery]], [[Palpung Monastery]], [[Dege Gonchen]], [[Repkong]] and others of all lineages, [[Sakya]], [[Gelug]], [[Kagyu]], and [[Nyingma]], all became his disciples.

Jamgon Mipham Rinpoche was also instrumental in training some of last century’s most important [[Nyingma]] teachers. His most prominent students include [[Khenpo Kunpal]], [[Kathok Situ Rinpoche|Katok Situ]], [[Sechen Rabjam Rinpoche]], [[Khenpo Pema Dorje]], and the tertön [[Lerab Lingpa]].<br>
