archivistnotes There seems to be some issues with the dates for this figure. The current Khyungtrul lives in Washington D.C. and is the son of the late Lama Ralo. So either there was a long gap between tulkus or the previous incarnation, pictured on this page, lived sometime in the early three quarters of the 20th century. Or there are two different figures being conflated here. See Note 2 on this page.
