The reincarnation of Guangding Maha Situpa began with Indrabodhi, the king of India, a disciple of Sakyamuni Buddha. Since then, the history of several successive reincarnations and their achievements have been recorded in many historical annals in Sanskrit, Tibetan and Chinese. The reincarnation of Guangding Great Situpa, except for the reincarnation named Guangding Great Situ, is from the first to the twelfth life; in addition, according to the records of the classics, and from the eighth Guangding Great Situpa It can be seen from the thangkas drawn by Situpa himself that there are also seventeen reincarnations including: Dombipa, Sri Sindha, Darikapa, Marpa the Great Translator, Taranatha... etc. (as listed in the table on the right).
