Bodong (Tib. བོ་དོང་, Wyl. bo dong) is one of the smaller Tibetan Buddhist traditions. It is sometimes considered a branch of the Sakya tradition. It also propagated a specific Lamdre lineage that was later incorporated into the Sakya lineage. The tradition goes back to Bodong Rinchen Tsemo, however the teacher who is considered to be the founder was Bodong Penchen Lénam Gyelchok who had a seat at the Bodong E monastery. Je Tsongkhapa also studied at Bodong E. Gyalsé Tokmé Zangpo also served as abbott at Bodong E.
