The 7th and current Jamme Lhachog Tulku was born in 1961 to a family of nomads in Zatod, Nangchen. He was named Lhatrul Nyima Kunkhyab Trinley Drodul Palzangpo. On the day of his birth, his family and tribesmen witness miracles such as water turned milky in the containers and four circular rainbow surrounded the sun outside his tent. At the age of one, his first word were, "I am Warrior King Gesar". Since his birth, his life has been nomadic. He practised Dharma and culture whenever he had the spare time. He had great bodhicitta and was pious minded. One day, he had a strange dream. In the dream, he was advised to move away and go towards the westerly direction to fulfil his destiny. This he did as soon as the opportunity arise.
In 1984, Venerable Choesin Rinpoche recognised him as the incarnation of the previous Lama. His Eminence the Tai Situ Rinpoche authenticated it. Rinpoche was then enthroned ceremoniously in Nangchen at a gathering of Tulkus.
He has obtained the empowerments, reading transmission and profound instructions from a number of all tradition Lamas and Tulkus including His Eminence the 8thAdeu Rinpoche. He has successfully completed five sets of the four hundred thousand preliminary practices and did stretched prostration from Kham to Lhasa (700km) where the famous Jokhang Jowo statue is. To further benefits beings, Rinpoche stayed in retreat for seven years, contemplating and practising the Buddhist scriptures. Now that he has such extensive experience in the scriptures and practise, he is able to assist beings. To help the sick, he uses mantra, herbs or accupressure, depending on the nature of the illness.
His greatest wish is to be able to carry forward the tradition of enlightenment through rebuilding the Jamme Gon Namgyal Monastery (which was completely destroyed during the Chinese Cultural Revolution in 1960) and to look after the livelihood and well being of the (13) Yogins in retreat and as well as all the Sangha members living in the monastery.
