Gyurme Kunzang Tenpé Nyima Shedrup Chökyi Gocha (aka Nangdzé Drubpé Dorje) (1910-1959) - the sixth Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche.
Biography
He was born in Golok in the Iron Pig year, to the chieftain Akhyung Drasar, and recognized by the fifth Dzogchen Rinpoche. When he was first taken to Shechen Monastery by his parents, as he arrived at a bridge before the monastery, an old woman with wild looking hair and dressed in maroon clothes appeared and said, 'My son has come', and offered him a silk scarf (khata). As Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche writes, this was none other than the uncommon protector of his lineage, the protectress Durtrö Mamo.
When he was enthroned at Shechen by Shechen Gyaltsab Rinpoche and Kuwön Gelek Gyatso, he was given the name Gyurme Kunzang Tenpé Nyima Shedrup Chökyi Gocha. He received many empowerments, including the Rinchen Terdzö from Shechen Gyaltsab Rinpoche. From Khenpo Drayang, he received teachings on the Guhyagarbha Tantra. From Khenpo Rigzin Özer he received teachings on Jikmé Lingpa's Treasury of Precious Qualities and Lochen Dharmashri's commentary on the three sets of vows. On account of his exceptional intelligence, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche tells us, even before he began his formal studies in the art of prosody, he composed songs of realization and pieces of advice in a beautiful poetic style.
From Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö he recieved the entire Rinchen Terdzö, the twenty-five visions of the Great Fifth Dalai Lama, and the complete revelations of Ling Jedrung Pema Drodül. He also received the empowerments and reading transmissions for the mind terma of Tseyum Tsendali from Pema Shyepa, the King of Ling.
