| bio | Sokdokpa Lodrö Gyaltsen was a 16-17th century Nyingma master who was controversial in his opposition to the Gelug regime of the Fifth Dalai Lama. He earned the epithet the Mongol Repeller (sog bzlog pa) due to his efforts to turn back the advances of the Mongol army by means of wrathful rites. He was also a formidable polemicist who mounted an influential literary defense of the Nyingma doctrine against their Sarma detractors. For reasons such as those, his written works were at one point banned in Tibet. |
