Rngog Family Sources

Rngog Family Sources

For the Bka' brgyud pas, the Rngog family was primarily important for supplying teachers on the texts of the tantra scriptures.  A great number of Bka' brgyud teachers for much of the last millennium used to visit the center of the Rngog family in order to pursue higher learning in tantra scripture studies.

Source:  Rare Writings on the Esoteric Teachings of the Bka'-brgyud-pa tradition from the library of Zhwa-dmar Rin-po-che, Dzongsar Chhentse Labrang, Palace Monastery (Gangtok 1980).  Tib-C/BQ 7669/.R26.  Includes chronology by Tshe dbang nor bu, pp. 147-91, at pp. 170-174. (This corresponds to "Tibetan Histories" no. 278, and IASWR microfiche LMpj 014,455 in Set VIII.  Cyrus S. has already made a translation of this, although it remains unpublished.)  I tried to add in the 'intended' dates according to my own lights.  Particularly for the middle members of the early family lineage, the dates differ from those found in the other sources.

Lho rong chos 'byung has perhaps the most detailed account so far available, at the very beginning of the history following the life of Marpa.

There is a nice sketch of the Rngog family in 'Brug chen IV Padma dkar po's history, pp. 461.3-466.4.

v. teaching and practice lineages

Among the disciples of Master mar pa who were known as the "Four Pillars" (ka ba bzhi) were: mes, rngog and 'tshur. They continued the Lineage of mar pa's teaching, whereas mid la transmitted the lineage of meditation. mes tshon pa bsod nams rgyal mtshan taught much the exposition of the brtag gnyis[1] at myang ro (near Gyangtse) and gtsang rong. He took over the monastery of ba do and composed a commen­tary on the Hevajra-Tantra. Among his descendants up to mes kun po, ja mthong and blo grags there appeared several siddhas. The Lineage of Teaching: zhang bsod nams mkhar met both mar pa and mes tshon po, then bde gshegs ye shes snying po, zhang ston kun dga' grags, bla ma rin chen, shakya rgyal po, and zhang ston pa grags sbyor. Till the latter, the Lineage was known as the "Lineage of the exposition according [R:406] to the system of mes". There were many disciples who had belonged to his Lineage, such as rgya mtsho grags and others, and who had composed commentaries (on the Cycle of Hevajra). The abbot sangs rgyas 'bum me held the Lineage of Preaching of the mes system at sgom sde. rngog maintained the teaching (according to the system) at gzhung and had numerous disciples. ram tsan chan, sba wa ba can, rngog dad pa can, rgya ’a ma can, sum pa phod ka can, lho pa chung ma can and gnyal pa rngog chung ma chan.

vi. rngog’s son rngog mdo sde

His son rngog mdo sde: he was an incarnation of sbug ye rgyal, [F:4a] the upādhyāya of las stod, and was born in the year Iron-Male-Horse (lcags pho rta 1090 A.D.) as son of rngog, the Great, and sba mo chos brtson who was the sister of sba wa ba can (sba "with goitre"). Till his death at the age of 77, he taught initiations extensively, the Tantra (Hevajra-Tantra) and hidden precepts, and laboured a great deal for the welfare of living beings among the mantrins of Tibet. He was considered to have possessed much wealth. He had visions of fifteen goddesses, including Nairātmā (bdag med ma), and was an expert in the upāya-margā. He was able to make his disciples penetrate the meaning of non origination (skye ba med pa) with the help of the upāya margā, and composed numerous treatises such as the "rin chen rgyan 'dra" and others. He held a religious council at nya mo gyur, having sent invitations to great kalyāṇa-mitras, such as 'chims, the Great, and the bla ma zhang. During that time, a niece of the Master mar pa (came there) on her way to lha sa. He, having secured the permission of the kalyāṇa-mitras, made the niece head of the council for one day. She brought with her a small quantity of the Master mar pa's relics and rngog asked her: "May I take them?" She replied: "You can take them also". Besides these relics, all the remaining relics were deposited in a caitya called bkra shis sgo mang which was made of Acacia wood, but mar pa's son jo rin 'khor lo lost the caitya in gambling and the relics were thrown into a square enclosure. [R:407] When she was returning from lha sa, rngog sent two monks after her to collect the relics, and in this manner he secured all the relics of mar pa and was able to erect the Great Sepulchre (gdung khang chen mo). In the temple he erected a silver tomb and placed the relics inside it. Till the present day the neighbourhood benefits by their blessing.

He has also met rwa lo, 'spa tshab, gnyal gyi bya lo zla ba 'od zer, sud phu lo tsa ba ‘byung gnas rgyal mtshan, gnyan lo, zangs dkar 'phags pa shes rab, ba ri to tsa ba and rma lo tsa ba. His father said in his Last Will that he had to study the Cycle of Hevajra under ram. [F:4b] Accordingly he proceeded to gtsang to the residence of ram, but they did not receive him in a proper manner, and he returned back and studied under rngog.

vii. Two systems of exposition of the Hevajra-tantra

Later, there appeared two systems (of Hevajra), one called the ram system and the other called the rngog system. The All-knowing chos sku' od zer wrote a treatise in which he tried to combine the theories of both ram and rngog. The followers of ram used to say: "ram was a great scholar"(%) He used to debate with the paṇḍita 'bum phrag gsum pa (brtan skyong, or Sthirapāla) and defeated him. rngog chos rdor had a beautiful mudrā or Tantric assistant and he offered her to ram (in order to obtain from him instruction in the Cycle of Hevajra). When ram was expounding (the Hevajra system) and added to it passages from the jam dpal gsang ldan[2] and other Tantras, rngog said: "Pray give me the pure teaching of Master mar pa." He thus received the teaching by compelling this teacher and in later times his own exposition (of the Cycle of Hevajra) was distinguished by purity.

His son mdo sde studied the system under rngog and thus arose this confusion in the exposition (of the system). ram also preached extensively the (Hevajra) Tantra. His nephew ram rdo rje btsan and others, as well as the scholar rgya nam, became his disciples. tre bo mgon po was the first to visit rgya nam for debating, [R:408] but then he discovered his inability to conduct the debate and became the latter's disciple. During his initiation into the Cycle of Hevajra by rgya nam, his tooth peg (so shing, dantaka) floated in the air.[3] He thought to himself: "Though I have faith in the Guhyasamāja Tantra, my karmic bound (las 'brel) is with the Cycle of Hevajra." rgya nam also composed a commentary on the Hevajra-Tantra. This commentary tre bo studied by heart and later taught it extensively. One of tre bo's disciples, named chos la dga' also composed a commentary on the (Hevajra-Tantra), which followed the interpretation of ram. snye mdo, the All Knowing, also studied the ram system under gnyan rdo rje seng ge, a disciple of tre bo. His own follower kun dga' don grub and others continued the exposition of the (Hevajra-Tantra).[4]

viii. rngog mdo sde’s disciples, consort, and hereditary lineage

rngog mdo sde had the following disciples: rtsags Dharmarāja, 'gar bkra shis rin chen, 'tshe'u dar ba, mal yer pa ba, tre bo mgon po, ngor rje kun dga' 'od, gshen pa rdo rje seng ge, mnyam med shAkya ye shes, cog ro chos rgyal, lha phyug mkhar ba, sdo tsha chos sku, dran ston mtha' brel, lho nag, rgyal tsha rin chen mgon po and [F:5a] others. When rngog mdo sde (it seems that he had been named after the elder son of mar pa who had been his father's teacher) was residing at gtsan C:mig, one night when he was about to go to the residence of a mudrā, a [R:409] female siddha named jo mo sgre mo ("Old Lady") came to his place and said: "If you go to-night, you may meet with an accident! But if you go the next night, an extraordinary son will be born to you." sbug ye rgyal, a former incarnation of rngog, was the teacher who had ordained jo mo sgre mo as a nun. Because of this, she held mdo sde in high esteem. This sgre mo was a great siddhā, and lived long. It is said that Vimalamitra had entrusted to her many Vajrayānic Tantras.

sgre mo's prophecy came true, and a son named gtsan tsha jo tshul was born to him. He (gtsan tsha lo tshul) was born when his father was 26 in the year Wood-Female-Sheep (shing mo lug 1115 A.D.), and was given the name of tshul khrims shes rab. He died at the age of 44 in the year Earth-Male-Tiger (sa pho stag 1158 A.D.). The son of jo tshul was rngog kun dga' rdo rje. He was born in the year Fire-Female-Ox (me mo glang 1157 A.D.). He attended on mes (grandfather) mdo sde, mche'u dar re of lho nag lha mo, dpal chen go bo, the siddha sol po ba and on mal nag mo. He founded the monastery of spre'u zhing. When he was ten, his grandfather passed away. He himself died at the age of 78 in the year Wood-Male-Horse (shing pho rta 1234 A.D.).

gzi brjid grags pa, son of kun dga’ was born in the year Water-Male-Dog (chu pho khyi 1202 A.D.) when his father was 46. He studied thoroughly the doctrine under his father and was ordained by ba char ba, a disciple of bya 'dul. He followed on lo ras, la drug, sgrol sgom mdo chen pa and others, and built the `northern' palace (gzims khang) and a vihāra. He also transported there the tomb of Master mar pa and acted as abbot (of the monastery). He died at the age of 8o in the year Iron-Female-Serpent (lcags mo sbrul 1281 A.D.).

His younger brother the ācārya rgyal po dga' was born in the year Wood-­Female-Ox (shing mo glang 1205 A.D.) and died at the age of 80 in the year Wood-Male-Ape (shing pho spre'u 1284 A.D.).

His son the ācārya seng ge sgra was born in the [R:410] year Wood-Female-Sheep (shing mo lug 1235 A.D.) when his father was 31. He died at the age of 74 in the year [F:5b] Earth-Male-Ape (sa pho spre’u 1308 A.D.) His younger brother the bla ma rin chen bzang po was born in the year Water-Female-Hare (chu mo yos 1243 A.D) when his father was 39. He studied the doctrine under his uncle gzi brjid and at the age of 10 preached himself the Doctrine. At the age of 18, he was ordained as novice at zul phu. At the age of 33 he received full monastic ordination in the presence of the upadhyāya zul phu ba chos grags dpal, the karma-ācārya 'od zer dpal and the secret preceptor (gsang ston) ye shes dpal. He studied the Doctrine with his father, the ācārya rdo rje rin chen, the ācārya bzang mo ba 'phyong po ba and the ācārya rin gzhon. When he was 27, the bla ma gzi brjid passed away. After completing the funeral rites (of gzi brjid), he became abbot. He visited khams and toured (the province) for two years. He became a preacher of yang ­dgon sgom sde of 'tshal pa and priest of the royal household. He prepared a copy of the bka' 'gyur written in gold. (During his tenure of office) the temples and monastery increased (in size). He honoured and supported numerous monastic congregations, headed by those of spel bzi, zul and skyor (zul phu and skyor mo lung). He gave to all the interconnected monastic establishments of dbus and gtsang their respective shares. He was known as a manifestation of mar pa and the excellence of his life knew no measures. When he was 42 in the year Wood-Male-Ape (shing pho spre'u 1284 A.D.) rang byung rdo rje was born. When he was 48, in the year Iron-Male-Tiger (lcags pho stag 1290 A.D.), bu rin po che (bu ston) was born. He laboured greatly for the benefit of living beings and died at the age of 77 in the year Earth-Female-Sheep (sa mo lug  1319 A.D.).

rin chen bzang po's younger brother, the ācārya chos rdor was born in the year Fire-Male-Horse (me pho rta 1246 A.D.) and died at the age of 66 in the year Iron-Female-Hog (lcags mo phag 1311 A.D.). The eldest of [R:411] his five sons, the ācārya chos kyi rgyal mtshan was born in the year Water-Female-Sheep (chu mo lug 1283 A.D.). When he was 37, bla ma rin chen bzang po passed away. He himself died at the age of 77 in the year Earth-Female-Hog (sa mo phag 1359 A.D.). He went to Khams and there gathered numerous disciples, including the rin po che of ri bo che and others. Journeying as far as dar tshe mdo (Ta tsien lu/Tachienlu on the Sino-Tibetan border), he received large offerings and sent them to spre'u zhing (near gyangtse/rgyal rtse), where he acted as abbot. Having met the yar klungs lo tsa ba grags­ pa rgyal mtshan, he heard from him the rdo rje phreng ba.[5] [F:6a] The inmates of spre'u zing possess till this day the uninterrupted Lineage of the Vajramālā. 

rin po che don grub dpal pa, son of the ācārya seri ge 'bum, the fourth son of the ācārya  chos rdor, was born in the year Iron-Female-Sheep (lcags mo lug 1331 A.D.). When he was 29, rin po che chos rgyal ba passed away. He himself died at the age of 68 in the year Earth-­Male-Tiger (sa pho stag 1398 A.D.) His son rin po che byang chub dpal pa[6] was born in the year Iron-Male-Mouse (lcags pho byi ba 1360 A.D.) which is the year following the year of the death of the rin po che chos rgyal ba. When he was 9, rin po che don grub dpal pa died. He studied and attended on his father, and became very learned in the system of rngog. After the death of don grub dpal pa, he occupied the abbot's chair and used to preach annually. Some ingrate individuals slandered him to king drung chen pa, and the king had him punished. While he had no success in his work, he proceeded to meet the Great Master tson­g kha pa when the latter was preaching at grum bu lung and was received with respect. tsong kha pa inquired about his knowledge and expressed himself again and again amazed at his accomplishments. Because tsong kha pa had frequently [R:412] eulogized him, great Tripiṭakadharas admired him. In this manner he gathered many scholarly disciples, such as the Dharmasvāmin bkra shis dpal ldan pa of 'bras spungs, the mahā-upādhyāya pad ma bzang po and others. The rin po che of stag lung  dpal ngag gi dbang po also studied under him. che sa sangs rgyas rgyal mtshan (che sa seems to have been an ancient title) also obtained from him the initiation according to the system of rngog. After that he was invited by king (mi'i bdag po) grags pa ‘byung gnas who studied assiduously under him the initiation rite and the exposition of the (Hevajra) Tantra together with its precepts according to the system of rngog. Filled with great devotion, he paid (him) great homage. ldum chung ba don grub dpal pa also studied under him. The Venerable bsod nams rnam par rgyal ba of byams gling, the great speaker dpal chos kyi grags pa [F:6b] and drung bsod nams rgyal mtshan also respected him for his great wisdom. He possessed a copy of the brtag gnyis (the Hevajra-Tantra), called rdo rje ma[7] which he used to mark whenever he taught the Doctrine. I had seen 182 such marks. Meanwhile, the Lineage of preaching the gdan bzhi[8] came to an end among the inmates of his monastery (spre'u zhing). By order of the great tsong kha pa who said: "You should at any rate preach (i.e. obtain the permission or lung) the gdan bzhi", he obtained the permission to read the gdan bzhi from an old monk named the ācārya tshul mgon pa who was an inmate of spre'u zhing gling. In this manner he laboured a great deal for the welfare of living beings and passed away at the age of 87 in the year Fire-Male-Tiger (me mo stag 1446 A.D.). From that Fire-Male-Tiger (me mo stag 1446 A.D.) year to the present Fire-Male-Ape (1476 A.D.) 31 years have elapsed. All the descendants of rngog at spre'u zhing belong to the clan of gtsan tsha.

Now thogs med grags, son of mdo sde [R:413], of the line of rgyal tsha: He was born in the year Iron-Male-Mouse (lcags pho byi ba 1120 A.D.) when his father was 31. He lived to the age of 37 in the year Fire-Mouse (me byi ba 1156 A.D.). He was very learned in his father's doctrines and composed many manuals. jo 'od, a younger brother of thogs med grags, was born in the year Water-Tiger (chu stag 1122 A.D.). He lived for 25 years. His younger brother to bsod was born in the year Earth-Hen (sa bya 1129 A.D.) and lived to the age of 17. His younger sister ston chung dbang mo was born in the year Water-Ox (chu glang 1133 A.D.) and lived to the age of 13. The younger brother jo bde was born in the year Wood-Hare (sin yos 1135 A.D.), and lived to the age of 11. rgyal tsha ra mo, son of thogs med­ grags, was born in the year Fire-Male-Tiger (me pho stag­ 1146 A.D.) when his father was 27 and lived to the age of 37 in the year Water-Male-Tiger (chu pho stag 1182 A.D.). His younger brother rdo rje seng ge was born in the year Water-Male-Ape (thu pho spre’u 1152 A.D.) when his father was 33. He died at the age of 68. When ra mo was 21 and rdor seng 15, their grandfather passed away. ra mo had three sons lcam me, jo shAk and jo bsod. lcam me's son nam mkha' dbang phyug had two sons: [F:7a] kun dga' and dbang phyug 'bum. kun dga’'s son was rin chen rgyal po. His sons were rin chen dpal, grags pa rgyal mtshan and kun dga' blo gros. The latter's son was kun dga' bzang po.  rin po che bkra shis dpal pa was born in the family of the Precious byang thub dpal pa at spre'u zhing. He received ordination in his childhood and attended on the great blo gros, phel ba of rtses thang. He studied Logic and after that made a study of the doctrines of his predecessors with the Precious One (byang chub dpal pa), and became a learned man. As the Precious One himself enjoyed a very long life, and as no one came to listen to his instructions, except some persons (who came to listen to his annual preaching), he was installed (as abbot) in the [R:414] lifetime of the Precious One. His son is the present abbot. From the birth of mar pa in the year Water-Mouse (chu byi ba l012 A.D.) to the present Fire-Male-Ape year (me pho spre 1476 A.D.) 465 years have elapsed. In general, the preaching of the Doctrine by such great men (mahā-puruṣa) as rtsags, a disciple of rngog mdo sde, and others spread widely. Their later followers composed commentaries which filled the valleys (of the country). This lineage of rngog was of great benefit for the preaching Lineage of mar pa.
