Sakya Trizin Ngawang Kunga
Sakya Trizin (Tibetan: Page Template:Bo-textonly/fonts.css has no content.ས་སྐྱ་ཁྲི་འཛིན།, Wylie: Template:Tlit "Sakya Throne-Holder") is the traditional title of the head of the Sakya school of Tibetan Buddhism.[1]
The Sakya school was founded in 1073 CE,[2] when Khön Könchog Gyalpo (Tibetan: Page Template:Bo-textonly/fonts.css has no content.འཁོན་དཀོན་མཆོག་རྒྱལ་པོ།, Wylie: Template:Tlit; 1034–1102), a member of Tibet's noble Khön family, established a monastery in the region of Sakya, Tibet, which became the headquarters of the Sakya order.[3] Since that time, its leadership has descended within the Khön family.
The 41st Sakya Trizin, whose reign spanned more than fifty years, was the longest reigning Sakya Trizin.[4] The current Sakya Trizin is Gyana Vajra Rinpoche, officially known as Kyabgon Gongma Trizin Rinpoche,[5] the 43rd Sakya Trizin Gyana Vajra Rinpoche.

Ratna Vajra Rinpoche, The first to be enthroned under the new system
Gyana Vajra Rinpoche
New succession system
On 11 December 2014, a new throne holder succession system was announced during the 23rd Great Sakya Mönlam prayer festival on a resolution passed by the Dolma Phodrang and Phuntsok Phodrang, where members of both Phodrang will serve the role of Sakya Trizin in one three-year term, according to their seniority and qualification.[10][11]
Ratna Vajra Rinpoche was enthroned on 9 March 2017 as the 42nd Sakya Trizin, the first to be enthroned under the new system.[5] Due to the COVID Pandemic, the 43rd Sakya Trizin Gyana Vajra Rinpoche was enthroned on 16 March 2022, five years after the enthronement of the 42nd Sakya Trizin. He is the current throne holder of the Sakya school.
