what
A baby was borned with special marks like rare tiger skin
patterns to his waist, resembling a monk's robe... and a mole resembling
an elephant's eye on his leg. The auspiscious occurances at the
baby’s birth symbolises that he would bring the light of the
tantric teachings to the human realm of this samsaric world.

The baby was none other than the 84th supreme
Head of the Nyingma Kathok Tradition H.H.
Lhoga Rinpoche (Tulku).
15 days after the birth of His Holiness,
Tulku Gensang Padje Nima prophesied that His Holiness is
the Wish-fulfilling Gem of the Dharma and that He would
burst forth in absolute brilliance in all directions in
the future, bringing great benefits to all sentient beings.
At the same time, this Great Master strongly
blessed H.H. Lhoga Rinpoche and gave Him Refuge and Initiations.
His Holiness is also bestowed the name of Lodro
Tenpay Gyaltshen.
Recognition & Enthronement of His Holiness
His Holiness was recognised at the age of
2 by Kathok Situ Rinpoche
on the plains of the Gu Long Region of Kham. There
was a perfect match of the names of the parents and the
physical features of the child to that of the instructions
given by the Dharma Protectors. Moreover, the child was
able to recognise correctly the various personal objects
belonging to his previous incarnation.
The recognition of His Holiness was also
confirmed by Jamyang Khyentse
Chokyi Lodro Rinpoche.
|
As a result of these unmistakable signs,
the child was confirmed as being the reincarnation of the
late Khenchen Lekshek Choden
of Kathok Monastery.
When Khenchen Jamyang Gyaltsen met Him, it
was like the coming together of father and son. The child
immediately held the hands of Khyentse Jamyang Gyaltsen,
then packed his clothings by himself and wanted to leave
with Khyentse Rinpoche.
At the age of 3, H.H. Lhoga Rinpoche was
invited to return to Kathok Monastery. He was enthroned
as the 2nd Khenchen Lekshek
Choden Rinpoche at a grand enthronment ceremony.
