Introduction To Tsongkhapa :
Great Tibetan Buddhist Master Je Tsongkhapa, whose given name was Losang Dragpa, flourished in the 14th century and advanced the Kadampa school of Buddhism that Atisha had founded three centuries before. The Buddha anticipated him before he arrived in Tibet. He meticulously taught the Tibetans all they needed to know about spiritual growth, from the initial step of beginning a spiritual practice to the final achievement of Buddhahood. During this golden period of Tibet, Je Tsongkhapa set the bar for moral purity, a loving way of life, and profound, liberating insight, inspiring thousands of Tibetans.
How do you take care of your statues?
• Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
• Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is completely free of moisture and dust.
• Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
• Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face. Directly touching objects with the bare hand can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
