Terton Drukdra Dorji Riponche of Bhutan Visit

Brief Biography of Tertoen Drukdra Dorji's Trulku His Holiness Trulku Ugyen Drodrul Thinley Kunchap Rinpoche.

H.H. Trulku Ugyen Drodul Thinley Kunchap Rinpoche is one of the most renowned and important figure of Bhutan. Tertoen Drukdra Dorji is known popularly for prophesying the Birth of 4th Druk Gyalpo. Tertoen Drukdra Dorji also discovered an important piece of statue relic, The self-arising statue of Ekajati, which is the most important Nangten at Dokhachu Goenpa today.

H.H Trulku is the unmistaken reincarnation of Terton Drukdra Dorji and was born in 1999 to his father Wangchuk Rinzin and mother Sonam Yuden in the beautiful Valley of Phobjikha. His Eminence Trulku Ugyen Drodrul Thinley Kunchap was formally recognised and enthroned as the yangsid (reincarnation) of Terton Drukdra Dorji at the age of four by the 70h Je Khenpo Jigme Chodra and the Central Monastric Body of Bhutan.

It is said, the birth of His Eminence Trulku Ugyen Drodrul Thinley Kunchap Rinpoche was extraordinary and accompanied by many auspicious and wonderful signs. Since his birth, he exhibited extraordinary characters unlike an ordinary child.

At the age of three, Trulku insisted and asked repeatedly to visit Chumphu Lhakhang in Paro. Because of the persistent request, Trulku's family took him to Paro where he wanted to visit a cave on the way. It was an extraordinary act when he revealed a sacred treasure from the Cave. Continuing the journey, while at Chumphu Lhakhang in Paro, he was able to account and describe the history of Chumphu Lhakhang. Moreover, he recognised the treasure of Vajravarahi (Dorji Phagmo) statue revealed by Terton Drundra Dorji from the life-lake (Latsho) of Vajravarahi and stuck the coin or prayer money (Nyendar) at the heart of the treasure of Vajravarahi statue. This was witnessed by a large crowd who gathered at Chumphu Lhakhang. All people gathered there found themselves amazed with the accuracy and unmistaken description of all important events which a 3 year old child could vividly remember from his previous life.
