Khyentse Tulku Dzamling Wangyal (1868-1907) was a son of Dudjom Lingpa and one of the incarnations of Do Khyentse Yeshe Dorje.

Birth, Family & Recognition

Born in 1868[1], Khyentse Tulku Dzamling Wangyal’s father was Dudjom Lingpa, and his mother was Kéza Sangye Tso[2].

According to Chonyi Drolma[3], translator of Dudjom Lingpa’s biography:

”Some stories relate that Do Khyentse Yeshe Dorje, whose unpredictable and sometimes intimidating demeanor were similar to Dudjom Lingpa’s, announced his arrival to his future father before he even passed away. The two met on horseback on a mountaintop and drew swords as if to fight. Dudjom Lingpa told Do Kyentsé they needed nothing from each other, insinuating that each were complete in their realization. Do Khyentse Yeshe Dorje countered, saying that he would need to rent a room from Dudjom Lingpa soon. This is thought to allude to his subsequent reincarnation. And of course, he announced himself to Dudjom Lingpa beforehand in a dream”.

Khyentse Tulku Dzamling Wangyal was recognised as an incarnation of Do Khyentse Yeshe Dorje by Mingyur Namkhé Dorje, Dza Tsamtrul Rinpoche Kunzang Dechen Dorje, and his father Dudjom Lingpa, and enthroned at Dzagyal Monastery in 1878, at the age of 10, though he remained with his father.

In his autobiography, Dudjom Lingpa recounts[4]

[In 1877], on the first day of the middle summer month, I embarked on a journey during which my son Khyentse Tulku Dzamling Wangyal [Khyentse Nyugu] was granted investiture on the throne of the Dodrupchen Monastery[5]. We then continued on to Nuzok Monastery where he was once again granted investiture on the throne.
