About Rinpoche
The Fifth Amnyi Trulchung Rin poche was born in 1970\, amid many auspicious sign s\, and was soon recognised as the reincarnation o f the Fourth Amnyi Trulchung Rinpoche of Ju Mohor Monastery.
Even as a young boy\, he was unlike his pe ers. He had a particularly loving and compassionat e nature that was noted and appreciated by all who met him. Amnyi Trulchung Rinpoche showed exceptio nal intelligence in all his studies and attained p erfect understanding in all he was taught.< /p>
With the g uidance of his spiritual teachers\, he undertook a ll the traditional training of his lineage. This i ncluded accumulating the 500\,000 ngondro practice s\, and training in the Rigdzin lineage tradition including the essential Dzogchen instructions of k adak trekchö and lhundrop tögal during which time he gained extraordinary insights and experiences f rom his meditation practice. This training culmina ted in a three year retreat at Yachen Orgyen Samte n Choeling\, under the regular guidance of HH Lama Achuk Rinpoche.
At the age of 18 years he was formal ly enthroned as the Fifth Amnyi Trulchung Rinpoche and abbot of Ju Monastery.
His education continued a t the great university centre of Larang Gar at Ser thar. He studied the different schools of Buddhist philosophy and the sutra and tantra under a numbe r of teachers\, particularly the founder of Larang Gar\, HH Khenchen Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche. He gra duated from Larang Gar as a Khenpo at the age of 2 5.
Later\, Rinpoche returned to Ju Mohor Monastery to give teachings\, to the great benefit of the mona stic community there. During this time\, Rinpoche also received many empowerments\, oral transmissio ns and pith instructions of the secret Nyingmapa k ama and terma traditions from a number of scholars and practitioners including HH Drupwang Pema Norb u\, Khenpo Pema Tsewang\, Venerable Gyangkhang Tul ku\, Venerable Khenpo Choekyap\, Venerable Trulshi g Rinpoche and Venerable Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche and several teachings on Secret Mantrayana from Ve nerable Ngorlu Ding Khenchen.
Rinpoche is now heading the groundbreaking Vista Project\, based in Sersh ul\, the town closest to Ju Mohor Monastery. The a im of the Vista Project is to revitalise the econo mic and cultural lives of the Tibetan people. Alth ough the Chinese economy is growing rapidly\, the nomadic peoples of Eastern Tibet are often unable to take advantage of the opportunities available. The Vista Project aims to provide basic education and vocational training to enable local nomads to survive and prosper in the modern economic climate and also to preserve and cultivate the ancient cu lture of Tibet.
