|BiographicalInfo=Alexander Gardner's Note on the dates of Kongtrul:
|DatesNotes=Jamgön Kongtrul passed away on the twenty-seventh day of the eleventh month of the earth-pig year of the fifteenth sexagenary cycle. Nesar Tashi Chöpel, who recorded the date, likely used the Tsurpu calendrical system, for which the Tibetan date would translate to December 29, 1899. The more commonly used Pukpa system had two eleventh months in the earth-pig year, leading scholars to give Kongtrul's death as falling either on December 29, 1899 (the first eleventh month), or January 28, 1900 (the second).
According to Kongtrul’s disciple Nesar Karma Tashi Chopel, who wrote an account of Kongtrul’s last years and death, Kongtrul died on the 27th day of the 11th month of the earth pig year. The problem is that there were two 11th months in the earth pig year of the fifteenth sexegenary cycle, but Tashi Chopel doesn’t acknowledge that, so no one knows which eleventh month he meant!
|YearBirth=1813
 
|YearDeath=1899
That equals either December 29, 1899, or January 28th, 1900.

|tolExcerpt=Jamgön Kongtrul is often described as one of the greatest scholars in the history of Tibet. A Karma Kagyu lama and model of rimay ecumenical activity, he collaborated closely with the Sakya lama Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo and the Nyingma treasure revealer Chokgyur Lingpa, in the opening of sacred sites and the revelation of treasure. His prodigious literary output, categorized as the Five Treasuries, cover the entire range of Tibetan Buddhist theory and ritual as well as numerous other topics, and preserved scores of Tibetan religious traditions that were at the time in danger of being lost. Based primarily at Pelpung Monastery, in Derge in eastern Tibet, he built the nearby hermitage of Tsadra Rinchen Drak, which became his personal seat. Multiple incarnation lines were recognized after his death, including the main Jamgön Kongtrul line, based at Pelpung, the Dzokchen Kongtrul line and the Dzigar Kongtrul line.

Jamgon Kongtrul Yonten Gyatso ('jam mgon kong sprul yon tan rgya mtsho) was born at Rongyab (rong rgyab) in the Derge kingdom in Kham, on December 14, 1813, the water-bird year of the fourteenth sexagenary cycle. The identity of his father is somewhat of an open question. At his birth he was identified as a Bon priest named Sonam Pel (bsod nams 'phel). Yet Kongtrul claims in his diary, which has been skillfully translated into English by Richard Barron, that his father was in fact Lama Yungdrung Tendzin (bla ma g.yung drung bstan 'dzin), a member of the prestigious Khyung (khyung) clan. His mother's name was Tashi Tso (bkra shis mtsho). Soon after his birth, it is said that his parents were given a prophecy by Yungdruk Puntsok (g.yung drung phun tshogs), also called Tarde Tokden (thar bde rtogs ldan), who said that the child would be a great Bodhisattva blessed by Padmasambhava.
