English presentation:
Lama Ahbay Tulku Jigme Thupten Tendar Rinpoche was born in Darjeeling, India in 1973. In the Tibetan calender the day of his birth is known the auspicious, "day with
ten good Omens". His father Sonam Dorjee and his mother Lobsang Tseten have two more children, his elder brother Dondhup Paljor and his younger sister Tsering Tsomo.
In 1979, Khabche Zong Rinpoche visited the hill station of Darjeeling and gave profound instructions bringing happiness to everybody. His father postrated to the
feet of this great master with the wish to have the possibility for one of his sons to become a monk. Zong Rinpoche saw that it would be better to choose the younger of the two brothers to enter
the monastery. In the same year the abbot of Gaden Jangtse Monastery in South India gave him the name Jigme Phuntsok and he received the robes of a monk. The venerable Geshe Khenrab Choedak of
Hardong Khamtsen became his religious master and he began to learn to write and read Tibetan and to study Buddhist metaphysics according to the tradition. Geshe Sonam Choephel, Geshe Tenzin
Dhakpa and Geshe Lobsang Choenyi were ordained as his additional masters.
When he was nine years old he was fully initiated into monkhood and the tutor of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Khabche Ling Rinpoche gave him the name Thupten Tendar.
When he was twelve, His Holiness the Dalai Lama identified him as the reincarnation of the hermit Lama Lobsang Tenzin. Consequently he takes again with his load the responsibilities for his
preceding incarnation and becomes again the spiritual leader of his monastery Yega Choe Ling in Tibet.
