Samdrup Rinpoche

Samdrup Rinpoche is a contemporary lama of Tibet, holder of the Dudjom Tersar lineage.

He was born in 1973. At the time of his conception, his father Tulku Theglo Rinpoche, dreamed of a right-spiraling conch entering the womb. Through this sign, Tulku Theglo Rinpoche realized that his child must be one of the reincarnations of his own father, Dzongter Kunzang Nyima], the speech emanation of Dudjom Lingpa.

This recognition was later confirmed by other masters, who added that he was also the reincarnation of one of Dudjom Lingpa's sons.
