*[[Rigdzin Jatson Nyingpo]]. Rigdzin Jatson Nyingpo (1585-1656): The discoverer of the Ratnasamanyasamgha, the [[Köncho Chidu]], teachings. See the introduction for a short description of his life. The description of his appearance occurs in the preliminary practice, and can also be seen for example in the murals of [[Dabzang Rinpoche]] and Urgyen Tulku's monasteries in Nepal, arms dramatically outstretched in a halo of rainbow light, smiling, the long flaps of his pandita's hat floating upwards. He is in full monks clothing, legs in the vajra posture and he holds a vajra in the right hand and a phurba in the left. Kongtrül includes a description of the visualisation of him at this point in his text of the preliminaries. In that text however, this precedes the contemplation of precious human existence, impermanence,etc. [Peter Roberts]
