Khenchen Jampal Dewé Nyima (Tib. འཇམ་དཔལ་བདེ་བའི་ཉི་མ་, Wyl. 'jam dpal bde ba'i nyi ma) aka Gyurme Pendé Özer (Tib. གྱུར་མེད་ཕན་བདེ་, Wyl. 'gyur med phan bde 'od zer) was one of the main teachers of Dudjom Rinpoche. He was the nephew of Tertön Rangrik Dorje of Nyarong. His main teacher was Mipham Rinpoche, but he also studied with Nyoshul Lungtok, his brother Rangrik Dorje, Jamgön Kongtrul Lodrö Thayé and Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo. He was primarily connected with Lumorap Monastery in Nyarong, but accompanied his brother who went to Mindroling Monastery in Central Tibet in order to reestablish the family lineage there.

Lodi Gyari Rinpoche was recognized as his next reincarnation.
