The First Gyalpo Rinpoche left behond many inspirative and
impressive incidences in his lifetime - he averted the otherwise
catastrophe to help the local farmers by causing rain and
by halting the avalanches in the Himalayas; two gangs of gun-fighters
abandoned their arms spontaneously and repented for their
karmic deed by the instant appearance of Gyalpo Rinpoche;
most of Rinpoche's followers passed away during meditation
and their bodies remained in meditated and their bodies remained
in meditated posture and hearts remained warm even after seven
days....
The second Gyalpo Rinpoche was reincarnated in 1978. As a
young child, he related many stories about his previous incarnated
life. At the age of 6, the Second Gyalpo Rinpoche was recognized
and enthroned at the holy seat of Dapsang Monastery in Kathmandu
by H.E. Tai Sity Rinpoche. Even as a small child, Gyalpo Rinpoche
revealed his high intellectual power and keen interest in
Buddhadharma practice. He started his several months's retreat
after 10 years old.
H.E. the Third Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche placed high regard
of the small Gyalpo Rinpoche. He inspired and encouraged Rinpoche
to establish a Buddhist institute to provide high quality
training and education to the future Sangha. Subsequently,
with the assistance of Jamgon Rinpoche before this parinirvana,
and of Lama Gyaltsen, Karma Lekshey Ling Institute was establish
in Kathmadu in 1990, when Gyalpo Rinpoche was only 12 years
old. It becomes the main seat of the Second Gyalpo Rinpoche.
At present, Karma Lekshey Ling Monastery (Institute) enrolled
the largest number of Buddhist students in Nepal and by Virtue
of it's strict discipline and high standard, is greatly famed
both in Nepal and abroad.
At the age of 16, Rinpoche started redevelopment of the Karma
Samten Chokhor Ling Monastery and Nunnery in Manang, the main
seat of the First Gyalpo Rinpoche which had fallen into disrepair.
At the age of 20, in 1998, Gyalpo Rinpoche was appointed
as the Chairman of the Buddhist Monasteries Management and
Development Committee of Nepal. (At present, there are over
4000 monasteries and Dharma centres in Nepal.)

various teaching of the Lineage, transmissions and initiations
form H.E. Tai Situ Rinpoche, H.E. the Third Jamgon Rinpoche,
H.E. Gyaltsab Rinpoche, the Third Dapsang Rinpoche and Thrangu
Rinpoche and many others. At the age of 22, Gyalpo Rinpoche
has already accomplish the profound path of Mahamudra and
of Dzogchen.
In 2000, at the ceremony of 50 years of Democracy in Nepal,

and recognition of his achievement and contribution in the
Buddhist community as well as in the Educational development.
