Detail InformationEdit

Rakhadrak Hermitage (Ra kha brag ri khrod) is a historical hermitage, belonging to the Sera Monastery. It is located to the northeast of Sera and to the north of Lhasa in Tibet Autonomous Region. It is located just up the mountain from the Keutsang Hermitage.
The historical fame of the hermitage is two-fold. One is that Tsongkhapa created his great classic treatise known as “The Essence of Eloquence that Distinguishes Between the Provisional and Definitive Meaning of the Scriptures (Drang nges legs bshad snying po)”. The second aspect is that a letter known as “bearers of the golden letter” (gser yig pa) was formally handed over to Tsongkhapa here, brought by a delegation from the Emperor of China. The letter was an invitation from the Chinese Emperor to Tsongkhapa to visit his court in China.
In the 18th century, the hermitage was also established by Sgrub khang dge legs rgya mtsho (1641–1713) as a formal monastic institution with twelve fully ordained monks. The hermitage is also part of the “Sixth-Month Fourth-Day” (drug pa tshe bzhi) pilgrimage circuit. Another account (oral account) attributes building of the hermitage in the 17th century to a student of the Fifth Dalai Lama (Da lai bla ma sku phreng lnga pa).
