With deep roots in Dergé (Kham), the Ling Tsang (‘The Clan of Ling’) originally split off from the ancestral Dong Tsang (Dong clan). Among his many amazing members are Ling Gésar Gyalpo.
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.
