The Treasury of Lives

The Gungtang incarnations is a Geluk line based at Labrang Monastery in Amdo. In the early eighteenth century, the Second Gungtang Ngawang Tenpai Gyeltsen  was recognized as the reincarnation of the Fiftieth Ganden Tripa, Gendun Puntsok, also known as Tri Gungtangpa. The Gungtang line has its primary seat at Labrang Tashikyil, where most of the Gungtang lamas have been abbots. The Third Gungtang, Kunchok Tenpai Dronme was especially famous all over Tibet for his scholarship.
