དྭགས་པོ་བཀྲ་ཤིས་རྣམ་རྒྱལ་
Dakpo Tashi Namgyal(1513 - 1587)

Dakpo Tashi Namgyal (Dakpo Paṇchen Tashi Namgyel, Wylie: dwags po paN chen bkra shis rnam rgyal) (1513–1587) was a lineage holder of the Dagpo Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. He was also trained in the Sakya lineage and was renowned as a scholar and yogi.

He should not be confused with his namesake, also known as Kunkyen Tashi Namgyal, (1399–1458), who helped establish Penpo Nalendra Monastery in 1425 with Sakya master Rongton Sheja Kunrig (1367–1449). Later in life he served as chief abbot of the Kagyu Daklha Gampo Monastery in southern Tibet.

His most famous works were two Mahamudra texts, Moonbeams of Mahamudra and Clarifying the Natural State. (Source Accessed Feb 28, 2020)
