Ven. Gyatrul Rinpoche

The Venerable Gyatrul Rinpoche was born in the Sichuan Province of China near the Tibetan border in Eastern Tibet in 1925. At the age of seven, he was recognized as the "tulku," or consciously reincarnated spiritual being, as the great Payul contemplative, Sampa Kunkyap, and was reinstated as Tulku of Dhomang Monastery, where he took his education. Rinpoche spent many years in retreat with some of Tibet's greatest Lamas and is a fully qualified teacher of Vajrayana Buddhism.
