Jamyang Gyatso ('jam dbyang rgya mtsho, b. 17??–d. 1800). One of Shabkar's root teachers. He was a highly accomplished master thoroughly versed in the teachings of both the Nyingma and Sarma traditions; he instructed Shabkar in the mind-training teachings and gave him many empowerments from the cycles of Nyingma treasures, including the Longchen Nyingthig of the vidyadhara Jigme Lingpa. (Source: Food of Bodhisattvas, 136.)

Jamyang Gyatso ('jam dbyangs rgya mtsho, d. 1800) was a lama of both Nyingma and Geluk traditions. Jamyang Gyatso met Shabkar Tsokdruk Rangdrol around 1797 and gave him a number of transmissions of Nyingma treasure cycles, including those of Tennyi Lingpa (bstan gnyis gling pa, 1480-1535), Karma Lingpa (kar ma gling pa, b. 1326) and Jigme Lingpa ('jigs med gling pa, 1729-1798), as well as Lojong (blo sbyong) training.
