Five Sovereign Terma Revealers or Five Tertön Kings (Tib. tertön gyalpo nga) are the most important tertöns. They were all emanations of King Trisong Detsen.

  1. Nyang Ral Nyima Özer (1124-1192)
  2. Guru Chökyi Wangchuk (1212-1270)
  3. Dorje Lingpa (1346-1405)
  4. Pema Lingpa (1445/50-1521)
  5. Pema Ösel Do-ngak Lingpa (Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo) (1820-1892)

Sometimes the list also includes the great tertön Rigdzin Gödem (1337-1408).
