Sakya Pandita Kunga Gyaltsen (1182-1251) is counted as the fourth of the Five Patriarchs of the Sakya order of Tibetan Buddhism. Also known as Sa-pan, he was the principal disciple of his uncle, the great Buddhist master Drakpa Gyaltsen. Sa-pan took full ordination with Shakya Shri Bhadra in 1208, who trained him in the complete monastic education of the great Indian monasteries of the period. Based on this education, Sa-pan was instrumental in transmitting the Indian system of ten major and ten minor sciences to Tibet. In 1247, he was ordained as regent of Tibet by the dominant Mongol chieftains.
