Gyuto Order

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Gyuto Order (also spelled Gyütö or Gyüto) of Buddhist monks is a Tibetan tantric order founded in 1475 within the Tibetan school of Gelug.

The monks of the Gyuto Order are known for their tradition of overtone singing, which achieved renown in the West following the release of recordings made by David Lewiston in 1978,[1] and in 1990 by Windham Hill Records.[2]
