The Lingtrul lamas are a Geluk line with their seat at Labrang Tashikyil. The Second Jamyang Zhepa established the line in the late 18th century when he recognized Konchok Gepai Lodro as the reincarnation of the First Lingtrul, Ling Dondrub Gyatso, a throneholder of Labrang. Dondrub Gyatso was from the Lingmo clan from whence the title is derived.
