Pema Lungtok Gyatso (Wyl. pad+ma lung rtogs rgya mtsho) (b.1852) also known as Golok Wangdé Lingtrul was a great Chö practitioner of the Dudjom Tersar lineage. He studied directly with Dudjom Lingpa and became one of the principal heart-sons and dharma custodians.

Writings

Having attained the most excellent degree of scholarly learning and a lofty level of accomplishment, he composed a great many works such as:

  • "A Clear Guide to the Close Lineage of Chö Practice", an extensive 744 pages commentary which provides a guide to the Chö practice in general, and to Dudjom Lingpa Tröma Nakmo 's Chö cycle in particular.
  • a presentation of the nine yanas
  • a collection of practices related to Tara

Pema Lungtok Gyatso was assigned by Yeshe Tsogyal to help Dudjom Lingpa complete his autobiographies. He is considered a primary editor of the different autobiographies of Dudjom Lingpa and of most of Dudjom Lingpa's writings.
