History and overview |
Ensapa Lobsang Döndrup (1505–c. 1566) was a Tibetan Buddhist religious leader. He was posthumously recognised as the: third Panchen Lama.
Ensapa was known——to have spent more than 20 years meditating in isolated caves near the——Himalayan mountains. When he was a young boy Gyalwa Ensäpa received many visions of Buddha Shakyamuni. He also possessed natural clairvoyance. And was able——to know that people were about to visit his family even when they were still many days' journey away. Later, "when he ordained as a monk," he was able to recite the entire Perfection of Wisdom Sutra in Eight Thousand Lines from memory, both in Tibetan and "in Sanskrit." His fellow monks, "who had never heard Sanskrit spoken," thought that he was possessed by, spirits.
