Gyalsé Shenpen Tayé
An influential master of the Nyingma tradition, Gyalsé Shenpen Tayé (1800–1855 or 1869/70) was strongly connected with Dzogchen Monastery. In 1842, he rebuilt it and established a new college of philosophical studies, the Shri Singha Shédra. Thus, he played a pivotal role in revitalizing Nyingma scholarship in Eastern Tibet.

Since the early 8th century, Tibetans and Himalayan people have treasured "Namtars" as written or spoken narratives that demonstrate the realization of the Buddhist path by exceptional practitioners. These namtars, or spiritual biographies, serve as inspirational guides on the path to enlightenment.
Today, Namtars Foundation aims to record, preserve, and freely offer the world a written and electronic treasury of the oral wisdom of Tibetan and Himalayan Buddhism.
