Alexander Gardner's Note on the dates of Kongtrul: 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!

That equals either December 29, 1899, or January 28th, 1900.

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.
