Dudjom Lingpa (1835–1904) was a Tibetan meditation master, spiritual teacher and tertön.[1] He stands out from the norm of Tibetan Buddhist teachers in the sense that he had no formal education, nor did he take ordination as a monk or belong to any established Buddhist school or tradition of his time.[2]
He was met with great skepticism by many of his contemporaries, due to the fact that, despite not studying under any established Buddhist teachers of his time, he claimed to receive teachings on meditation and spiritual practice directly from non-physical masters like Guru Rinpoche and Yeshe Tsogyal, as well as Bodhisattvas such as Avalokitesvara and Manjushri.[3] It was not until his disciples started showing clear signs of spiritual maturity, that he was accepted by his contemporaries as an authentic teacher and tertön.[2]
Today his teachings and literary works, especially those on non-meditation (dzogchen), are highly regarded within the Nyingma-tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.[1]
