The 5th Jebtsun Dampa, Rongzom Chokyi Zangpo, was the first to appear in Tibet, during the lifetime of the famous Bengali sage Atisha Dipankara (tenth century CE). The 11th was Jamyang Choje Tashi Paldan, born in Tibet near Samyae Monastery, who established Drepung Monastic University, "the Second Nalanda". The 13th Jebtsun Dampa was Kundgaa Drolchog, born in the Tibetan province of Ngari during the late fifteenth to early sixteenth centuries.
Jetsun Taranatha was born in 1575 C.E. at Kharag, in the hereditary line of the great translator Rwa Lo Dorje Drag. His Tibetan name was Kundga Nyingpo, but he is generally known by the name Taranatha, which he received in a vision from a great Indian adept. When he was one year old he declared, “I am Kundga Drolchog!” When he was four years old, he was brought to Kunga Drolchok’s monastery of Cholung Changtse and formally recognized as his incarnation, the 15th Jetsun Dampa.
In 1588 Taranatha was enthroned at Jomo Nang, although a formal ceremony of investiture did not occur until 1595. Taranatha took upon himself the responsibility of causing the Dharma Lord Dolpopa’s insights to once again reach a wide audience. In 1604, after more than a decade of efforts to revive the original Jonang teachings, all of Taranatha’s work was threatened by serious political conflict between the regions of Byang and gTsang.
Jonang itself was in immediate danger of being attacked by hostile armies. While meditating at Kunkhyen Dolpopa’s great stupa, Taranatha became despondent, and, seeing the tradition perhaps destroyed, wished only to go into retreat far away from all the troubles created by deluded and impassioned people. Kunkhyen Dolpopa appeared to him in a vision, encouraged him to continue as before, and assured him that his efforts would not be in vain. ......

之前看到论坛有人声称,杰尊丹巴世系只是哲蚌寺创始人蒋扬却杰的转世,而不是觉囊派中兴者至尊多罗那他法王。但是,多罗那他的前世里就有蒋扬却杰,蒋扬却杰之后是觉囊法王衮噶卓巧,之后是多罗那他,所以并没有任何冲突之处。不过,根据壤塘方面,多罗那他生前并没有去过蒙古,当时喀尔喀汗王的儿子也没有被作为觉囊本寺的继承者、藏东的藏瓦寺认证,而唯一是由第五世嘉瓦尊者宣布并且认证为多罗那他转世身份的,并且作为蒙古地区格鲁派的最高宗教领袖,所以觉囊派本身并不承认为觉囊派代表,而是由藏瓦寺的觉囊法王作为代表。
