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.

The Nyingma, which is often described as the oldest tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, traces its origin to Padmasambhava, who is said to have visited Tibet in the eighth century.

The Geluk tradition traces its origin to Tsongkhapa, who propagated a modified version of the Kadampa lojong and lamrim teachings. It is the dominant tradition of Tibet, having established its control of the government under the figure of the Dalai Lama.

The new Buddhist schools which began to rise in the second millennium in Tibet after Buddhism declined in the ninth century as a result of the fall of the Yarlung dynasty. The Sarma schools were mostly based on Buddhist teachings freshly received from India and Nepal in contrast to the revival of the old teachings which already existed in Tibet.
