Trijang Rinpoche

The 3rd Trijang Rinpoche, Geshe Lharampa Lobsang Yeshe Tenzin Gyatso (1901–1981) was the junior tutor and "root guru" of the 14th Dalai Lama and a direct disciple of the sectarian Dorje Shugden devotee Pabongkhapa Déchen Nyingpo. He received his Geshe Lharampa degree at age 18 from the 13th Dalai Lama, who also conferred his monastic vows before his admittance to the Upper Tantric College, Gyuto, in 1919.
