'''Drepung Monastery''' ([[Wyl.]] ''‘bras spungs dgon pa'') — one of the [[three great Gelugpa seats]] and the largest monastery in the history of Tibet. Before the Chinese invasion, there were over 7,000 monks but the monastery is said to have counted as many as thirteen-thousand monks, at its peak. Founded in 1416 by [[Jamyang Chöjé Tashi Palden]] (1379-1449)—a direct disciple of [[Jé Tsongkhapa]], the founder of the [[Gelug]] tradition, the monastery was later sub-divided into seven great colleges: 
#'''Gomang''',
#'''[[Drepung Loseling Monastery|Loselling]]''',
#'''Deyang''',
#'''Ngagpa''',
#Shagkor,
#Gyelwa or Tosamling, and
#Dulwa.
After a while the latter three colleges (Dulwa, Shagkor and Gyelwa) amalgamated into the others.
