A modern day tertön, Orgyen Kusum Lingpa (1934–2009) was from Golok. A disciple of many lamas, he received transmissions from Düdjom Jikdrel Yéshé Dorjé in Lhasa in the 1950s.
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.
