Excerpts
from the texts
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 7th
Jamme Lhamchog Tulku is the emanation of Hayagriva as mentioned in the
text, CERTAIN SECRET. He has manifested as the Dharma King Tsuglag Dzinpa
to benefit beings in the country of Sahor, as Acharya Salee in the presence
of Guru Rinponche as Gyalwa Jangchub, Rigdzin Jatson Nyingpo, Warrior King
Gesar and Tagsham Nuda Dorje.
He appeared in the
form of Bodhisattva Karma Lhamchog to become the disciple of Khampa Kharma
Tenphel. He was a supreme practitioner and attained great realisations.
To fulfill the prophecy and command given to him, he went to Nangchen,
Eastern Tibet. There the king took him as his guru and provided him with
land to build the Sa Dangpo Jamme Gon monastery. He became well known as
Jamme Lhamchog. |

| The 7th
and current Jamme Lhamchog 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 fulfill his destiny. This he did as soon as the opportunity
arised.
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 sucessfully completed five sets of the four hundred thousand
preliminary practices and did stretched prostration from Kham to Lhasa
where the famous 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.
