Sonam Tsemo (Tibetan: བསོད་ནམས་རྩེ་མོ, Wylie: bsod nams rtse mo, THL: sönam tsemo; 1142–1182) (or Lobpon Rinpoche Sonam Tsemo), an important Tibetan sprititual leader and Buddhist scholar, was the second of the so-called Five Venerable Supreme Sakya Masters of Tibet, the founding fathers of the Sakya tradition.[1]

Life

He was born in the year of the water dog of the second cycle at Sakya and was acclaimed as an incarnation of Durjayachandra. His mother was called Machik Wodron. He received extensive spiritual training from his father, Sachen Kunga Nyingpo, the first of the five founding fathers of the Sakya-tradition. At age 17, he went to Sangphu Neuthok and deepened his studies under the famous scholar Chapa Chokyi Senge. His studies included Paramita, Madhyamaka, Pramana, Vinaya and Abhidharma. By the time he was eighteen he had mastered the triple discipline of teaching, debate and composition. After his return to Sakya, he held the throne of the monastery for three years and then passed the authority to his younger brother, Jetsun Dragpa Gyaltsen, the third of the five founding fathers. He dedicated the rest of his life to studies and meditation. In 1182 he passed into pure land of Sukhavati, the water tiger year, at age 41.[1][2] He is said to have attained full Buddhahood.

A 17th-century painting of Sonam Tsemo from Ngor Monastery is held by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.[3]

Hyperbolic growth

Growth function exhibiting a singularity at a finite time The reciprocal function, exhibiting hyperbolic growth. When a quantity grows towards a singularity under a finite variation (a finite-time singularity) it is said to undergo hyperbolic growth.[1] More precisely, the reciprocal function 1 / x {\displaystyle 1/x} has a hyperbola as a graph, and has a singularity at 0, meaning that the limit as x → 0 {\displaystyle x\to 0} is infinite: any similar graph is said to exhibit h...
