Tsongkhapa, also known as Je Rinpoche, was born in the Amdo region of Tibet in 1357. He was a highly respected Buddhist scholar and is credited as being the founder of the Gelug Buddhist sect, known as the “Yellow Hat” sect, one of the most powerful and widespread in the Buddhist religion. Revered as an incarnation of the bodhisattva Manjushri, he was reported to have seen and conversed with the deity from a young age. om re hi o er l iece rel e gil - ro e ig re o o gkh 18 h ce r ill r e i i o re re o i e r ollec io o he c e rch i e mo i e 70 o 22
