His Holiness Trijang Choktrul Rinpoche Confers Initiation in Europe
I would just like to share that H.H. Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche was recently on a
teaching tour in Europe - in Switzerland, Austria and Italy. H.H Trijang Rinpoche is a 30 year old incarnation of a great master. In his
previous lives, H.H. Trijang Rinpoche was Candrakīrti, Śāntarakṣita, Atiśa Dīpaṃkāra Śrījñāna, Geshe Lang-ri Thangpa Dorje Senge and many more highly attained lineage masters.
About
H.H. Trijang Rinpoche's most immediate previous life:
One of the foremost Tibetan Buddhist Masters of the twentieth century. His Holiness Kyabje Trijang Dorje Chang is His Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama's philosophical assistant and later His junior tutor for more than forty years along with the senior tutor Kyabje Ling Rinpoche. Kyabje Trijang Dorje Chang was one of the great disciples of the late Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche.
The spread of Dharma in the west is directly and indirectly associated with Kyabje Trijang Dorje Chang, through his own teachings and through his many eminent disciples. His Holiness Kyabje Trijang Dorje Chang was born on March 10th, 1901. Through his precious activities and extraordinary teaching method he benefited the Buddha's teaching and countless beings. Up to the end of his life, he continuously turned the wheel of Dharma for the sake of all sentient beings until he breathed his last. His Holiness Trijang Dorje Chang passed away at the age of eighty one, leaving behind his great teachings and written works. All the first generation Geshes and great Rinpoches of the Gelug tradition who have been responsible for spreading the Dharma in the west were his disciples. You can read more

He is now back and continuing his previous life's work, which is very exciting. See the three videos of his recent tour and the many photographs at

@Dulzie_Bear i believe HH Trijang Rinpoche disrobed because of the Dorje Shugden issue. He would rather give up his robes than be subject to the ban on Dorje Shugden practice and has been quietly biding his time.
- Lama Osel, incarnation of Lama Yeshe, founder of the Federation of the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT)
- HH Trijang Rinpoche of course
- Telo Rinpoche, head of Kalmyk Buddhists and the incarnation of the Mahasiddha Tilopa
- Gesar Tulku, son of Chogyam Trungpa
Perhaps they will reach a different crowd by not wearing robes because people are so quick to judge how a monk should and should not behave.
