Je Gyaltsab, his first successor, was instrumental in safeguarding Tsongkhapa's teachings and expanding the Gelug lineage. The second successor, Je Khedrup, made substantial contributions to the intellectual foundation of the Gelug school and its spread throughout Tibet. All three are dressed in monastic robes and yellow caps, showing their commitment to the Gelug tradition.
