[[Tsangpa Gyare Yeshe Dorje]] ([[gtsang pa rgya ras ye shes rdo rje]]), (1161-1211)
*Five kayas — [[sku lnga]], Skt. [[panchakaya]], in the [[Mahayana]], the [[transcendent reality]] of perfect [[buddhahood]] is described in terms of two, three, four or five bodies or [[kayas]]. The two bodies, in the first case, are the [[dharmakaya]], the [[Body of Truth]], and the [[rupakaya]], the [[Body of Form]]. The dharmakaya is the absolute or "[[emptiness]]" aspect of buddhahood. The rupakaya is subdivided into the [[sambhogakaya]], the [[Body of Perfect Enjoyment]], and the [[nirmanakaya]], the [[Body of Manifestation]]. The sambhogakaya, or the [[spontaneous clarity]] aspect of buddhahood, is perceptible only to beings of extremely high realization. The nirmanakaya, the compassionate aspect, is perceptible to ordinary beings and appears in the world most often in human form. The system of [[four bodies]] consists of the three just referred to together with the [[svabhavikakaya]], or [[Body of Suchness]], which refers to the union of the previous three.

Tsangpa Gyare Yeshe Dorje  was one the foremost disciples of [[Lingje Repa Pema Dorje]], as well as one of the founders of the [[Drukpa Kagyu]] school. He met Lingje Repa when he was grown up and mastered the [[Six Doctrines of Naropa]] and [[Mahamudra]] under him. He founded the [[Ralung]] monastery ([[rwa lung]]), the principal seat of the Drukpa Kagyu lineage, and the monasteries of Longdol ([[klong rdol]]) and [[Nam-Druk]] ([[gnam ’brug]]), after which the lineage was later named. Tsangpa Gyare became a widely reknowned teacher with thousands of disciples. He discovered the "Six-fold cycle of Equal Taste" ([[ro snyom skor drug]]), a cycle of instructions that had been hidden by [[Rechungpa]] to be rediscovered at the appropriate time, and became thus known as a treasure revealer ([[gter ston]]).
