Ngawang Gyatso
Ngawang Gyatso was one of Dudjom Lingpa's first and most valued disciples. Ngawang Gyatso was a nephew of Gili[1] Wangli, of Golok, one of the two major patrons of Dudjom Lingpa (the other patron being Gönten).
According to Dudjom Lingpa himself, 'Ngawang Gyatso—and [Lama] Puntsok Tashi—was “a custodian of his teachings”.[2]
