Kyabje Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche is the grandson and spiritual heir of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, one of the foremost Tibetan Buddhist masters of the 20th century. Born in 1967, Rinpoche is the seventh in the line of the Rabjam succession.

Rinpoche began receiving teachings at the age of three from his revered grandfather and today holds his unbroken lineage. For twenty-five years he received almost every empowerment, teaching, and transmission Khyentse Rinpoche gave, as well as attended every drupchen he performed.

Since Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche passing in 1991, Rabjam Rinpoche has tirelessly worked to ensure that the transmission of his teachings and his vision for the flourishing of Tibetan Buddhism continue in an unbroken authentic lineage.

To this end, in Nepal, Rabjam Rinpoche built the Shechen Philosophical College (shedra), the Tsering Art School for the preservation of Sacred Art, the Shechen Retreat Centre, and the Shechen Elementary and Secondary School in Nepal. In response to the needs of women wanting to study and practice, he established two nunneries in Bhutan.

Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche tirelessly continues his activities to preserve and revitalize the spiritual tradition of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. He gives transmissions and empowerments of many collections of teachings, and instructions that he received from his grandfather. In addition, he has arranged and edited many of Khyentse Rinpoche’s termas (treasure teachings).

In these and many other ways, Rabjam Rinpoche preserves the rich Shechen traditions and practices so that they flourish for years to come and embody the living and authentic vision of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche.
