In the 9th century, the Tibetan Empire was torn apart by a king named Langdarma, who launched a brutal persecution of Buddhism that nearly erased the religion from the Himalayan plateau. This episode explores how Langdarma, the last emperor of the Yarlung dynasty, shut down monasteries, forced monks to marry or become hunters, and burned sacred texts. We discuss the political rivalry between Buddhist institutions and the old Bön aristocracy, the assassination of Langdarma by the hermit Lhalung Pelgyi Dorje, and the subsequent collapse of the empire into fragmentation. The episode also covers the legacy of Langdarma's reign in Tibetan historiography, where he is often portrayed as a demonic figure with horns, and how his death paved the way for the later revival of Buddhism in the 10th and 11th centuries. We touch on the divided Yarlung lineage, the emergence of the Guge kingdom, and the transmission of Buddhism from India that followed. Specific names include King Tri U Dumtsen (Langdarma), Lhalung Pelgyi Dorje, the Bön priests Nyang and Nup, and the successors König and Yumtän. #Tibet #Langdarma #TibetanBuddhism #Bön #TibetanEmpire #YarlungDynasty #Persecution #LhalungPelgyiDorje #Guge #TriU Dumtsen #9thCentury #BuddhistHistory #MonasteryDestruction #TibetanHistoriography #Assassination #EmpireCollapse #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
