Kings of Shambhala - The Lineage of Sakyong Kings

The Lineage of Sakyong Kings

Followers of contemporary Tibetan Buddhist teachers Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche and his son Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche believe them to be intimately connected to the Kalki kings, dedicated to propagating the wisdom of Shambhala in the rest of the world. The term "Sakyong" literally means "earth-protector" in Tibetan, although it is colloquially understood to mean "king." This lineage is passed down as a family lineage.

Famous quotes containing the words lineage and/or kings:

    I declare
    Two lineages electrify the air,
    That will like pennons from a mast
    Fly over sleep and life and death
    Till sun is powerless to decoy
    A single seed above the earth:
    Lineage of sorrow: lineage of joy....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    I give you a wise and discerning mind; no one like you has been before you and no one like you shall arise after you.
    Bible: Hebrew, 1 Kings 3:12.
