Dudjom Lingpa (1835–1904) was a Tibetan Nyingma school meditation master, spiritual teacher and tertön.[1] He was a recognized reincarnation of Rigdzen Düddul Dorje, and therefore of Khye'u Chung Lotsawa who was among the twenty-five heart students of Guru Padmasambhava. Raised in Amdo, Tibet, he had no formal education, nor did he take ordination as a monk or belong to an established Buddhist monastery. [2] Instead, he received direct teachings through visionary experiences with the Nyingma school masters Padmasambhava and Yeshe Tsogyal, and with other Buddhas and realized beings. His subsequent reincarnation is the highly revered Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche.
Dudjom Lingpa was met with great skepticism by many of his contemporaries, and he stands out from his era's norm for Tibetan Buddhist teachers. The skepticism was due to the fact that, despite not studying under any established Buddhist teachers of his time, he claimed to receive teachings on meditation and spiritual practice directly from non-physical masters like Guru Rinpoche and Yeshe Tsogyal, as well as Bodhisattvas such as Avalokitesvara and Manjushri.[3] It was not until his disciples started showing clear signs of spiritual maturity, that he was accepted by his contemporaries as an authentic teacher and tertön.[2]
Today, his teachings of the Dudjom Tersar and his literary works, especially those on non-meditation Dzogchen, are highly regarded within the Nyingma school tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.[1] His deeply popular cycle of Chöd practices on the black wrathful female deity Tröma Nagmo, a form of Vajravarahi,[4] resulted from a series of visions of and transmissions from Machik Labdron and Padampa Sangye.[5]
