Gelongma

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gelongma (feminine term) or Gelong (masculine term) is the Tibetan word for a fully ordained monastic observing the entire vinaya.

Getshül (Tib <dge tshul>) is the preparation monastic level prior to Gelongma. A lay person may take five vows called "approaching virtue" (in Tibetan genyen <dge snyan>).
