Puchungwa Zhonnu Gyeltsen (phu chung ba gzhon nu rgyal mtshan) (b. 1031 - d. 1106 or 1109) was one of the three main disciples of Dromton Gyelwa Jungne, along with Potowa Rinchen Sel and Chennga Tsultrim Bar. These three disciples were known as the “three brothers” (sku mched rnam gsum).[1]
Puchungwa Zhonnu Gyeltsen is also said to have studied with Atīśa Dīpaṃkara.[1]
Although he was said to have avoided gathering a large group of disciples, he founded one of the earliest Kadampa monasteries in Penyul, Puchung, and was known for his meditative abilities.[1]
