|tolExcerpt=Śākya Pel (shAkya dpal), also commonly known as Gar Dampa Chodingpa (mgar dam pa chos sdings pa) was born in 1180, on the eighth day of the second month of the iron rat year, in Kham, at a place called Medor (me 'dor). His father, a member of the Gar (mgar) clan named Pelgyi Tsemo (dpal gyi rtse mo), was a yogi in a long line of tantric practitioners. His mother was Gema Tar (dge ma thar). He had three brothers and two sisters.
|tolExcerpt=Śākya Pel, or Gar Dampa Chodingpa, was a disciple of Jikten Gonpo. He wrote one of the three earliest works on the Gongchik, the Single Intention, and he was one of the three masters who ‘opened’ the region of Tsari for retreatants and pilgrims. He founded Choding Monastery and, in the last days of his life, a monastery called Rinchen Ling. His reincarnations are known as the Garchen Rinpoche.
 
As a very young child with the name Sonam Bum (bsod nams 'bum) he received training from his father in the Vajrabhairava lineage of his ancestors.
 
When he was eleven his father and mother were both slain, and he accompanied his eldest brother Tsugtor Bum (gtsug tor 'bum) to the presence of a relative named Sanggye Neljor (sangs rgyas rnal 'byor), who granted further Vajrabhairava teachings. At age fifteen, he received an empowerment from a disciple of Pakmodrupa Dorje Gyelpo (phag mo gru pa rdo rje rgyal po, 1110-1170) called Tonopa  (ston 'od pa). During the empowerment he first heard the name of the "Silent One of Kyura" (skyu ra gsung bcad pa), or Jikten Gonpo Rinchen Pel ('jig rten mgon po rin chen dpal, 1143-1217), the founder of Drigung Til Monastery ('bri gung mthil), and soon after set out to central Tibet to study with him.
