|tolExcerpt=Ngoje Repa Zhedang Dorje (ngo rje ras pa zhe sdang rdo rje) was born in the early part of the twelfth century in the Ngor region (ngor) of Tsang (gtsang). His father, a member of the Ngoje (ngo rje) family, was named Dorje Tob (rdo rje stobs), and his mother was named Dortso (rdor mtsho).

Among his early teachers were the Kashmiri Paṇḍita Śākyaśrībhadra (kha che pan chen shAkya shrI b+ha dra, 1127-1225). He studied philosophy in the Sakya tradition and was known as an excellent debater and expounder of the Buddhist teachings.

 +
According to tradition, when Ngoje Repa first heard of Jikten Gonpo Rinchen Pel ('jig rten mgon po rin chen dpal, 1143-1217) the founder of Drigung Til Monastery ('bri gung mthil), he was overcome by jealousy. He drew a picture on a wall of Jikten Gonpo turning a stone mill with the heads of his disciples in it, a depiction meant to suggest that Jikten Gonpo was spinning the heads of his disciples with false teachings.
 +
 +
Confident of his debating skills, he went to Drigung Til to challenge Jikten Gonpo. He was brought into the master's presence by Pelchen Ngepuwa (dpal chen ngad phu ba). Despite his intentions, legend has it that as soon Ngoje Repa saw Jikten Gonpo he felt he was seeing the Buddha himself.
