thumb|466x466px|Lungshar at Buckingham Palace June 28, 1913 after the audience with King George V thumb|Lungshar and the four Tibetan students just before leaving for England Tsipön Lungshar (), born Dorje Tsegyal ( , 1880–1938), was a noted Tibetan politician who was accused by conservative political opponents of attempting to become the paramount figure of the Tibetan government in the 1930s, by planning a communist coup following the death of the 13th Dalai Lama.

Lungshar was one of the 'three favourites', close aides cultivated over two decades by the 13th Dalai Lama, who assigned Tibet's modernisation program to him. The other aides were Tsarong and Kunpella, who were both from peasant stock. All three were said to be exceptionally talented and intelligent with great depth of character. The 'genius', Lungshar, was a doctor, musician, philosopher, poet and statesman.
