Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche 吉噶.康楚仁波切
Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche (b.1964) — the present Dzigar Kongtrul, Jigme Namgyel (འཛི་སྒར་ཀོང་སྤྲུལ་འཇིགས་མེད་རྣམ་རྒྱལ་, Wyl. 'dzi sgar kong sprul 'jigs med rnam rgyal), was born in Northern India, shortly before the Tibetan community settlement at Bir was established by his father, the third Neten Chokling Rinpoche. When Rinpoche was just nine years old, his father passed away. Soon after this His Holiness Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche recognized him as an emanation of Jamgön Kongtrul the Great and His Holiness the 16th Karmapa confirmed this. He was soon enthroned at Chokling Gompa in Bir.

Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche moved to the United States in 1989 with his family and began a five-year tenure as a professor of Buddhist philosophy at Naropa University (then Institute) in 1990. Not long after arriving in the United States, he founded Mangala Shri Bhuti, an organization dedicated to furthering the practice of the Longchen Nyingtik lineage. He established a mountain retreat centre, Longchen Jigme Samten Ling, in southern Colorado, where he spends much of his time in retreat and guides students in long-term retreat practice.
吉噶.康楚仁波切於1989年偕同家人前往美國,並自1990年起,連續五年擔任那洛巴大學(Naropa University)(後稱為那洛巴學院Institute)的佛教義理教授。抵達美國之後不久,他創立了曼迦拉室利布提(Mangala Shri Bhuti),該組織致力於龍欽心髓傳承修持的廣傳。他在科羅拉多州南部成立一個名為「龍欽吉美桑天林」(Longchen Jigme Samten Ling)的山林閉關中心,不僅自己於該處長時投入閉關,同時也指導學生進行長期的閉關修持。

His students include Pema Chödrön, the best-selling buddhist author, and his wife, Elizabeth Mattis-Namgyel. He is also an avid painter in the abstract expressionist tradition.
