In this video, Nortrang Orgyen reads from and gives oral commentaries on the historical annals written by the Fifth Dalai Lama. He discusses the origins of the Tibetan kings beginning from Nyatri Tsenpo and the various narratives concerning the demise of Drigum Tsenpo, the seventh and last of the “seven heavenly thrones” (Tib. gnam gyi khri bdun). Due to the concise nature of the annals for this section, Nortrang Orgyen draws on Pawo Tsuklak Trengwa’s Feast for Scholars (Tib. Mkhas pa’i dga’ ston) to add further details about Tibet’s early kings (Beijing 2012: 84–89). The text covered in the video follows pages 12 to 13 in the Beijing 1980 edition of Bod kyi deb ther dpyid kyi rgyal mo’i glu dbyang.
