Tsong Khapa, called 'Buddha the Second', is another popular figure. He is the founder of Gelugpa, the Yellow Hat Sect of Buddhism. His reforms of Buddhist doctrine forged a more powerful and influential form of the religion. His two disciples became the first Dalai Lama and Panchen Lama, setting in place a complex reincarnation system of succession. Tsong Khapa wore distinctive clothes to differentiate himself from other monks, and in almost all Gelugpa monasteries monks don yellow peach-slice-shaped hats, orange cassocks and maroon robes with decorative patterns on the shoulders in his likeness. 
 
Padmasambhava and Atisha, the ancient ascetics who spread Indian Buddhism to Tibet, are also respected and worshipped by the Tibetans. Padmasambhava was initially an Indian prince before becoming a pious Buddhist monk. Late in the 8th Century, he brought Esoteric Buddhism to Tibet and preached its virtues until the religion flourished and prospered. The first temple of Tibet, <a href="/cityguide/shannan/samye.htm">Samye Monastery</a>  was built under his guidance. Atisha, initially a prince of the present day Bengal, had done much work to revive Tibetan Buddhism when the later King Lang Darma (reign 836 - 842) tried to forbid it.
