Revise: Festivals and RetreatsLama Tsong Khapa (1357–1419) was an influential Tibetan Buddhist teacher and reformer who emphasised ethics, monastic discipline, study and meditation. He strengthened observance of the monastic code and founded Ganden Monastery in 1409, which became the mother monastery of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism. He is honoured as the school’s founder, making his legacy particularly important to Gelug Buddhists.
