Late history of the Phagmo grupa

Post by Greg »

Has anyone come across any interesting sources on the late history of the Phagdru Kagyu? Every account I read describes how they ended up being aligned politically with the Gelugpa, but there is never much elaboration beyond that. I suppose the implication is that the lineage basically all converted to Gelugpa, but I've never actually seen that spelled out.
