Wagyel Toré (, "''Dba'as'' clan noble leader Toré" ? – 842), also known as Wa Taknachen ( "Tiger-Ear of the ''Dba'as'' clan), was the last Great Minister () of the Tibetan Empire. In Chinese records, his name was given as Jié Dūnà (結都那). He was appointed as Great Minister during Ralpacan's reign. Ralpacan indulged in Buddhism religion, leaving all his political affairs to the Banchenpo (Monk Minister) Dranga Palkye Yongten to deal with. Gyaltore had no actual power, and he was hostile to Buddhism. He told Ralpacan that Yongten fornicated with the queen (see also Karmamudrā), made Ralpacan very angry. Yongten was so frightened. He fled from the capital, but soon was captured and executed. After this, Tore became the ''de facto'' ruler of Tibet. He murdered Ralpacan in the palace, in 838, and installed Langdarma as the new king. According to traditional accounts, during the first two years of his rule, Langdarma remained a Buddhist, but under the influence of Gyaltore, the king became a follower of Bon. Many Buddhist monks or supporters were exiled or killed during this time; thousands of Buddhist templates were torn down, canons were thrown into water. Langdarma was assassinated by a Buddhist monk named Lhalung Pelgyi Dorje in 842. Langdarma had two sons: Tride Yumten by his first wife Nanamsa and Namde Ösung by his second wife. It was said that Tride Yumten was a fake prince, Nanamsa bought him from a beggar. Yumten was installed by Nanamsa, Wéyel Tore and many ministers refused to recognize him. Then, Gyaltore was captured and executed. The civil war broke out between the two prices, eventually led to the Era of Fragmentation in Tibet. ==References== *(''Old Tibetan Chronicle'', P.T. 1287 ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「We Gyaltore Taknye」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
