Muné Tsenpo
Muné Tsenpo () was the 39th Emperor of Tibet (r. 797?-799?). This period of Tibetan history, towards the end, and after the reign of Trisong Detsen is very murky and the sources give conflicting stories and dates. Mune Tsenpo is a Zhangzhung name meaning Namkha Tsenpo or 'Sky King'. Trisong Detsen is said to have had four sons. The eldest, Mutri Tsenpo, apparently died young. When Trisong Detsen retired (c. 797) to take up residence at the Nyugmakhar Palace (sMyug ma mkar) in Zungkhar (Zung mkhar), he handed power to the eldest surviving son, Muné Tsenpo. Most sources say that Muné's reign lasted only about a year and a half, while many Western scholars believe this would have been too short and some have suggested he reigned from 797 to 804. The ''Deb-ston'', however, records a reign of 17 years, but this has been attributed to a misreading of the Chinese accounts. The '' dBa' bzhed'' claims that Muné Tsenpo insisted that his father's funeral be performed according to Budd ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Sadnalegs
Tridé Songtsen (), better known by his nickname Sénalek Jingyön () or Sadnalegs () for short, was the youngest son of King Trisong Detsen of Tibet (reigned 800–815 CE – though various accounts give the beginning of his reign as 797 or 804 CE). Trisong Detsen retired to live at Zungkar and handed power to his second son, Muné Tsenpo, in 797. From this point there is much confusion in the various historical sources. It seems there was a struggle for the succession after the death of Trisong Detsen. It is not clear when Trisong Detsen died, or for how long Muné Tsenpo reigned. It is said that Muné Tsenpo was poisoned by his mother, who was jealous of his beautiful wife. Whatever the case, both the ''Old Book of Tang'' and the Tibetan sources agree that, since Muné Tsenpo had no heirs, power passed to his younger brother, Sadnalegs, who was on the throne by 804 CE. The other brother, Mutik Tsenpo, was apparently not considered for office as he had previously murdered a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
