Drikungpa
The Drikungpa, or more formally the Drikung Kyabgön, is the head of the Drikung Kagyu, a sub-school of the Kagyu (བཀའ་བརྒྱུད, Wylie: bka' brgyud), itself one of the four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism.Like all other Kagyu lineages, the origins of Drikung Kagyu can be traced back to the Great Indian Master Tilopa who passed on his teachings to Mahasiddha Naropa who lived around the 10th and 11th century.The founder of the Drikung Kagyu lineage was Jigten Sumgön (1143-1217) of the Kyura clan,[1] who was the disciple of Phagmo Drupa.One of the two current heads of the lineage, Drikung Kyabgön Chetsang Rinpoche,[3][4] Könchok Tenzin Kunzang Thinley Lhundrup (b.1946),[5] the 37th Drikungpa resides at Drikung Kagyu Institute at Dehra Dun, India.
