He was an 11th century Tibetan master (b. 1027), a Kalachakra yogin and disciple of the Kashmiri scholar Somanatha. He formulated his understanding of ultimate reality much along the same lines as the [[Jonang]] master [[Dolpopa Sherab Gyaltsen]] was to do much later, without however coining the same explicit terminology. Therefore Yumowa is often regarded as the originator of the [[Jonangpa]]'s [[Shentong]] view and the founder of their school, which he clearly was not.
 
From Yumowa Mikyo Dorje onwards, the Dro lineage of the Kalachakra passed on through the lineage-holders Dharmeshvara, Namkha Odzer, Machig Tulku Jobum, Drubtob Sechen, Choje Jamyang Sarma and Choku Odzer.
 
Choku Odzer in turn became the teacher of [[Kunpang Thukje Tsondru]] who became the actual founding father of the Jonangpa school.
