Zhang Yudrakpa Tsöndru Drakpa (1122–93) ''(zhang g.yu brag pa brtson 'gru brags pa)'', also known as Gungtang Lama Zhang ''(gung-thang bla-ma zhang)'' and popularly simply as “Lama Zhang,” was the founder of the Tshalpa Kagyu sect of Tibetan Buddhism. Although a prominent religious figure, Lama Zhang was also deeply, and controversially, involved in the political and military conflicts in the Tibet of his time. Lama Zhang was probably the first to establish a system of theocratic rulership centered on the figure of the charismatic lama in the Lhasa area of Central Tibet. Together with Tsongkhapa, and Phagmo Drupa Dorje Gyalpo, Lama Zhang was considered as one of the "Three Jewels of Tibet" ''(bod nor bu rnam gsum)''.〔chin. Xizang sanbao 西藏三寶〕 ==Biographical Details== Lama Zhang was born in August, 1123 at Tsawadru () in the Kyi River Valley located in the southern part of present-day Lhasa and was named Darma Drak. He was the son of Zhang Dorje Sempa, a lay tantric practitioner belonging to the important Nanam () clan, and Shümo Zamangkyi, who had formerly been a Buddhist nun. During his childhood his mother encouraged his religious education, taking the young Zhang to listen to religious discourses by the woman teacher Majo Darma.〔(Martin 2008 )〕 On the other hand, in his autobiography Zhang also records his “contradictory traits” and struggles with evil impulses from an early age—including killing of and cruelty towards animals.〔Yamamoto (2009) p. 57〕 At the age of seven, Zhang received teachings in the basic Buddhist doctrines of prajnaparamita, abhidharma and pramana from Sambu Lotsawa, and teachings in different tantras, including Hevajra and Mahākāla, from Lama Ngokpa, one of his most important tantric teachers. At this time he also received teachings in the practice of black magic.〔Sørenson and Hazod (2007) p. 31〕 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「Zhang Yudrakpa Tsöndru Drakpa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
