Description: Memoirs of the renown Tibetan scholar A-mdo Dge-ʼdun-chos-ʼphel (1903-1951), written by different persons who knew him first-hand and compiled by Kirti Rinpoche.
Notes: Translated from the Tibetan original, which was published by the Library of Tibetan Works and Archives in 1983 and entitled: "Mdo-smad-pa Dge-ʼdun-chos-ʼphel gyi skor ṅag rgyun lo rgyus phyogs bsdoms: Dge-ʼdun-chos-ʼphel gyi rab byed pa." The 1983 edition was compiled by Kirti Rinpoche without commentary or appendices.  A later 2003 Tibetan edition, published by the Kirti Institute, includes additional commentary by Kirti Rinpoche and various drawings, maps, etc. drawn by Dge-ʼdun-chos-ʼphel. A translation of the more comprehensive 2003 edition was published by the Kirti Institute in 2008 and entitled: "Supplementary chapters on Gedun Choephel."
