Dakpo Tashi Namgyal

Dakpo Tashi Namgyal (1511-1587) was a lineage holder of the Drukpa Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. He was also trained in the Sakya lineage.

He was renowned as both a scholar and yogi. His most famous works, "Moonlight of Mahamudra" and "Clarifying the Natural State", became classic Mahamudra texts, widely studied to this day. Later in life he served as chief abbot of Daklha Gampo in southern Tibet.
