H.E. Chakme Rinpoche is the ninth incarnation of Gyalwa Cho Yang, one of Guru
who gave the refuge to the previous Garchen Rinpoche. Without any notice, the
present H.E Garchen Rinpoche showed at the 9th Chakme Rinpoche's home and
gave him the refuge and empowerments, at the time even before Chakme Rinpoche
been recognized. Under the strong request of H.E. Garchen Rinpoche, he now turns
The first Karma Chakme was a very learned and realized Buddhist master who
founded the Nemdho Kagyu Lineage. He was revered throughout Tibet for his
remarkable qualities and accomplishments. Most notably, he composed the "Rechu"
("Mountain Retreat Manual"), which is regarded as the definitive text on retreat
practice in the Drikung Kagyu, Karma Kagyu and Nyingma orders of Tibetan
Buddhism.
"Mountain Retreat Manual" is comprehensive, encompassing both practical aspects
of setting up a retreat, as well as the most profound retreat teachings, including deity
practice generation and completion stage practice, Dzogchen Trekchod and Thogal.
The significance of "Mountain Retreat Manual" in Tibetan Buddhism parallels the
esteem reserved for such venerated texts as "The Jewel Ornament of Liberation" by
Gampopa.
Karma Chakme Rinpoche's second incarnation was one of four tulku sons born to
Adra Wangchen, who was an incarnation of the terma (hidden treasure) master
Ratna Lingpa. From a young age the second Chagme Rinpoche was noticed for his
excellent qualities and was particularly admired by the Tibetan King Nagchen Gyalpo.
Although Chakme Rinpoche had a responsibility to stay at the Nhemdo monastery
founded by his predecessor, the king requested Chakme Rinpoche to reside near
him, at Lho Meil monastery. Therefore the second Chakme Rinpoche often traveled
between the two monasteries. Toward the end of his life, he was asked by Khenpo
Karma Sangye from Nhemdo Monastery to spend the remainder of his life at his
home monastery. Chakme Rinpoche was very old and unable to speak due to
illness, but he agreed and held up two fingers indicating that from that point on there
would be two incarnations of Chakme Rinpoche - one in the Karma Kagyu lineage
and one in the Drikung Kagyu.
The present Chakme Rinpoche was born in 1975. His grandfather was the Terton
(hidden treasure master) Ozer Dorje. ( When Chakme Rinpoche's mother pregnant,
she found a 5 inches tall Victory Banner. One day, his mother was taking a nap on
the hill while herding the sheep, the baby Chakme Ripoche was screaming loud in
her womb " there is a wolf! there is a wolf". mother woke up and saw there was a
wolf approaching. while Ripoche's Father was on the pilgrimage, the young Chakme
Ripoche could tell where was his father at every day. When Chakme Rinpoche was a
young boy, he received many teachings and empowerments from his father, (elder
brother Genang Rinpoche and many other teachers . When he was twelve, he was
officially recognized by His Holiness Kyabgon Chetsang Rinpoche as the ninth
Drikung Kagyu incarnation of Karma Chakme. On the day of his recognition, he and
his mother with many other villagers were enjoying the sunshine in the pasture land .
he told his mother to give him a bath and change new cloth. he said "There are
people coming for me ." In the afternoon, LogDrub Rinpoche and other lamas
arrived and announced the recognition letter from H.H Chetsang Rinpoche. When
the recognition ceremony started, there were thunders in the sky and many white
conch shells as the size of Barley was found. Rinpoche has received many
teachings and empowerments from His Eminence Garchen Rinpoche, and spent a
great deal of time in retreat. At the age of sixteen, Chakme Rinpoche completed a
Manjushri Retreat in which he decided that he must dedicate himself to diligent
study. He then studied under many great Khenpos and, at the age of twenty-one,
pursued his Dharma studies at Dzogchen Shri Singha University. Thereafter,
Chakme Rinpoche attended a Tibetan University in Beijing where he also learned
Chinese language.
Chakme Rinpoche has also studied in India and received special empowerments of
the Drikung Kagyu lineage from H.H. Chetsang Rinpoche. In 2004, Chakme
Rinpoche gave teachings at the Drikung Kagyu convocation of the Monkey Year in
India. At present, he is the administrator of his monastery in Tibet, and travels
between his monastery in Tibet and China, where he teaches regularly.
