The Fourth Gyangkhang Rinpoche was born in India. H.H. Penor Rinpoche, H.H. Dudjom Rinpoche and H.H. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche recognized him as the authentic incarnation of the Third Gyangkhang Rinpoche.
At a tender age, he entered Ngagyur Nyingma Institute (Shedra), a branch of Namdroling Monastery and an advanced college of Tibetan Buddhism where he studied general Buddhist Philosophy as well as the distinct Nyingma Teachings. He received the esoteric teachings of Tantra thus laying the foundation for the higher practices. He also studied Tibetan grammar, poetry, and Tibet's political and religious history. Unlike other students, he was brilliant in his studies.
Gyangkhang Rinpoche has realized the meaning of Lord Buddha's teachings both the sutra and tantra. On several occasions, he has represented His Holiness by giving advice, instructions and teachings in many dharma centers around the world. At present, he is teaching in the Ngagyur Nyingma Institute (Shedra) and also assisting Penor Rinpoche in shouldering the monastic responsibilities.
