Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo.

Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo (T. 'jam dbyangs mkhyen brtse' dbang po) (1820–1892) was a renowned teacher, scholar and tertön of 19th-century Tibet. He was the last of the five kingly treasure revealers.

He was a leading figure in the non-sectarian Rimé movement, which he developed along with Jamgön Kongtrül Lodrö Thayé and Chogyur Lingpa. Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo and Jamgön Kongtrül Lodrö Thayé together compiled the teachings of the Sakya, Kagyu and Nyingma schools, including many near-extinct teachings, thus establishing the Rimé movement.[1]

He was the root teacher of Mipam Gyatso.
