bio Kunzang Dechen Lingpa Rinpoche (1928-2006) was born in the Earth Snake Year (1928), in Southern Tibet in Lhodrak. He was recognized by Dudjom Rinpoche as the Lodhak Tertön, the reincarnation of Tertön Longsal Nyingpo, of the Drupchen Melong Dorje lineage. Kunzang Dechen Rinpoche passed away in 2006, in Zangdok Palri Monastery. He remained in tukdam, sitting upright unassisted for two and a half days. At that time, marvelous signs were witnessed by many.

Kunsang Dechen Rinpoche was renowned for his terma revelations which include Dorje Drolö, Tröma Nakmo, and many others he directly received from Padmasambhava. (Source: Rigpa Wiki Accessed August 21, 2024)
