Also known as the '''Gyalwang Drukchen''' and  '''Druk Tamche Khyenpa'''  ''"All-knowing Drukpa"'' ([['brug thams cad mkhyen pa ]]) the successive Gyalwang Drukpas  are  considered to be incarnations of [[Tsangpa Gyare Yeshe Dorje]](1161-1211) founder of the Drukpa Kagyu school and one of the main disciples of [[Lingje Repa Pema Dorje]].

This also applies to the subsequent Gyalwang Drukchen incarnations.
