|tolExcerpt=Bamda Gelek ('Ba' mda' dge legs) was born in the village of Bamda ('Ba' mda') in the valley of Dzamtang ('Dzam thang) in Amdo. He was the eldest of five children born to a father named Drala Chaklo (Dgra bla lcags lo) and a mother named Kyi Koma (Skyid ko ma). His personal name was Tubten Gelek Gyatso (Thub bstan dge legs rgya mtsho). He is said to have had the ability to master with little difficulty any topic taught to him. In his youth he studied mostly under teachers of Tsangwa Monastery (Gtsang pa dgon), the largest and most famous of the sections of Dzamtang Monastery ('Dzam thang dgon), and the one closest to Bamda Gelek's home. | |||
Around age eighteen he left home for the kingdom of Derge (Sde dge) in Kham to enroll in the famous Śrī Siṃha Monastic College (ShrI sing+ha bshad grwa) of Dzogchen Monastery (Rdzog chen dgon), a Nyingma institution renowned for its teaching of the "five great texts" (bka' pod lnga) of Indian exoteric Buddhism. There he studied under some of the most important scholars of his day, including the Fourth Dzogchen Rinpoche Mingyur Namkhai Dorje (Mi 'gyur nam mkha'i rdo rje, 1793–1870), the eighth abbot of Dzogchen, Padma Vajra (Mkhan po pad+ma badz+ra, 1807–1884), the great Patrul Rinpoche, Orgyen Jigme Chokyi Wangpo (Dpal sprul o rgyan 'jigs med chos kyi dbang po, 1808–1887), and the then abbot of Śrī Siṃha, Konchok Ozer (Dkon mchog 'od zer, b. 1830s), otherwise known as Lama Akon (Bla ma a dkon). He also studied for some time at Dzaser Monastery (Rdza ser dgon). | |||
