The New Kadampa is a synonym for the 14th Century Gelukpas (Dge-lugs-pa) school of Tibetan Buddhism, as founded by Je Tsongkhapa (Btsong-ka-pa); being great admirer of the Kadampa teachings, Tsongkhapa was an enthusiastic promoter of the 11th Century Kadampa School's emphasis on the Mahayana principles of universal compassion as the fundamental spiritual orientation. Because of this great faith in the Kadampa, and as the Kadampa was quickly absorbed within the Geluk tradition, the Geluk was well known in Tibet as the New Kadampa, though the synonym is less well known in English-speaking countries.
In the 1990s Geshe Kelsang Gyatso founded the New Kadampa Tradition (aka NKT) as a split from the Gelug school, derived from this synonym of the Geluk.
