Tulku Dorje Dradül aka Tulku Dordra (1892-1959) was a son of Dudjom Lingpa and of Akyabza Kalzang Drönma [1]. He was recognised as the incarnation of Sangdak Ngö Nang Namchö Tertön Mingyur Dorjé.

Training

Tulku Dorje Dradül studied the Dudjom Tersar lineage with his father Dudjom Lingpa, and the Longchen Nyingtik lineages with the following masters:

Activity

Tulku Dorje Dradül propagated the treasure cycles of his father Dudjom Lingpa. A tertön himself, he revealed seven volumes of termas, however only two remain now, because in the 1950's and 1960's, some of these texts were buried in the ground and are since lost or ruined. The two remaining volumes of Tulku Dorje Dradül's termas, written by hand, are in the care of Ahyang Rig Drobpa.

  • Palyul Choktrul Thubten Chökyi Dawa
  • Siddhi Tülku, who taught Lama Chönam (Light of Berotsana)
