bio	Pabongkha is a controversial figure, but his popular work "Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand" contains no sectarian content and is a standard Lamrim work often used to teach Buddhists in the modern era. Despite the strong feelings his name may elicit in some circles, he is a historical person who was revered as a great teacher of Buddhism in Tibet, and while we do not condone any of his actions, also do not condone sectarian censorship of any kind. Pabongkha Dechen Nyingpo, also known as Jampa Tendzin Trinle Gyatso, was one of the most popular Geluk teachers in the Lhasa Valley in the first half of the twentieth century. His influence also spread to many areas of central Tibet and Kham. Pabongkha's main student, the Third Trijang Rinpoche, was appointed tutor of the Fourteenth Dalai Lama. Pabongkha taught and composed works on numerous topics, but is today often remembered for his dissemination of the practice of the deity Dorje Shugden.
