Chungdrag Dorje

Chungdrag Dorje was a Tertön 17th century which founded a small monastery of Gegön close to its native village of Phene in the area of Kutse of Dege in the Kham, Eastern Tibet. Although there is no monk over there currently, the small monastery still exists, and is known in the area for its beautiful religious mureaux tables.

Like Tertön, Chungdrag Dorje has redécouvert lesson and crowned objects hidden by Padmasambhava at the 8th century. Such treasures (Terma) were dissimulated with the intention which they would be discovered and revealed with a latter date where the circumstances would be such as they advantages private individual would bring to the sensitive beings. The texts of the lesson discovered by Chungdrag Dorje did not survive the Chinese Cultural revolution apparently. The crowned objects discovered by Chungdrag Dorje include an abnormally formed bell, a phurba (the ritual dagger), the syllable “” cut in the stone and the pigments used to create the tables of wall crowned in its monastery mentioned above. Several of these objects were preserved and are always kept with the Monastery of Palyul today.

In the tradition Nyingmapa it is known as that there are hundred principal revealing of treasure and a greater number of revealing secondary of treasure. Among the latter, it is not rare only the line of their lesson finally cease. Although they were advantageous during time when they thrived, for the various reasons some chalk-linings of teaching of tertön ceased. This would seem to be the case with Chungdrag Dorje.

Steven Seagal was recognized like a reincarnation of Chungdrag Dorje of the Monastery of Palyul.
