Gyalwa Ensapa

Gyalwa Ensapa Relic Gyalwa Ensapa was a great Kadampa master (1505 - 1566 CE) born in Ensa, at Hlaku near the Tsang River in Tibet. He felt nothing but revulsion towards every situation he saw in the world, while also feeling overwhelming compassion for every being. He met each one with the thought, "How can I rescue this poor being from the prison of uncontrolled rebirth in cyclic existence?"

Gyalwa Ensapa went to Pema Chan to practice samadhi (concentration). He practiced in deserted foothills and isolated ravines and did not worry about how long it would take nor about the tremendous effort that would be required. Before he was 21 years old he achieved the ability to remain in samadhi day and night. As a result, whenever he did any activity he experienced a unique bliss.
