Lama Tsultrim Gyatso
Lama Tsultrim Gyatso was a chödak of Apang Tertön. Following in the footsteps of Anam Jadral, his root teacher, Lama Tsüllo remained a jadralwa, one who has renounced the worldly activities, living as a hermit and renunciate.
He did not practice the Düdjom Tersar, but focused on the terma tradition of Apang Tertön. He accumulated about two-hundred million mantras of the wrathful Guru Drakpo Yéshé Barwa from Longsal Nyingpo’s terma.
Later, the daughter of Apang Tertön, Taré Lhamo, who held him high regard, invited him to Tsimda monastery, where he granted many empowerments of her father’s termas. Lama Tsullo also became one of the root teachers of Anam Thubten (b.1969), a trülku of Anam Jadral.
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.
