Kyabchen Dedrol is known for being a member of the third generation of Tibetan poets. Dedrol's poem, for example, "My Poetry", despite his divergent writings styles, it is namely a triumphant description of the virtues of one's own poetry. This boastful show is reminiscent of the traditional “genre” of scholarly pride (mkhas pa’i nga rgyal མཁས་པའི་ང་རྒྱལ།) in which scholars would boast of their learning and knowledge. One might expect there to be a slight air of arrogance associated with this display of superiority, however, only a scholar among scholars who possesses learning and humility (the two qualities traditionally associated with master scholars) in legendary proportions would ever consider making such a statement. In the Anthology of Classical Literature (Legs rtsom snying bsdus ལེགས་རྩོམ་སྙིང་བསྡུས། ) there is a section devoted to scholarly pride which features quotes from the Buddha Shakyamuni himself, the glorious Dharmakirti, the omniscient Longchen Rabjampa, the master scholar Sakya Pandita, Lord Tsongkhapa, and Tibetans' favorite Gendun Chophel, among other Indian and Tibetan scholars. They all propound their virtues and wisdom in a way that does not leave the reader feeling that they are conceited but, instead convinced that they live up to their claims.[18]
