'''Jamgön Kongtrül''' ([['jam mgon kong sprul]]). (1813-1899). Also known as [[Lodrö Thaye]], [[Yönten Gyamtso]], [[Padma Garwang]] and by his tertön name [[Padma Tennyi Yungdrung Lingpa]]. He was one of the most prominent Buddhist masters in the 19th century and placed special focus upon a non-sectarian attitude. Renowned as an accomplished master, scholar and writer, he authored more than 100 volumes of scriptures.

The picture, from a series of [[Karma Kagyu]] lineage thangkas, shows him together with [[Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo]] and [[Chokgyur Dechen Lingpa]].

*[[Fill in the blanks]]<br>
 
Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye (1813-1899) was born in Ranggyab village in the [[Derge]] province of Eastern Tibet. The [[Buddha]] predicted the coming of Lodro Thaye in the [[Samadhirajasutra]]. It is recorded that the [[Buddha]] spoke of him as an outstanding individual who would truly benefit many beings. His coming has also been predicted in many of [[Padmasambhava]]'s [[terma]]s (secret teachings that were hidden to be revealed later by his followers).
Lodro Thaye was the [[guru]] of the [[15th Karmapa]], [[Khakyab Dorje]]. He transmitted the [[Kagyu]] lineage and its teachings to the [[Karmapa]].
Lodro Thaye passed away in his eighty-seventh year.
