  1. I believe Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche is to the right of Minling Trichen Rinpoche. Kangyur Rinpoche is second row from the top all the way to the right. and isn't that Bomta Khenpo to the right just behind Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche. Sorry, those are the easy ones to spot, not sure of the others....

  2. thank you anonymous, good eye! i believe that is Bomta Khenpo just over Dudjom Rinpoche's shoulder, and indeed that does appear to be Kangyur Rinpoche. i've never seen a photo of Chagdud Tulku at that age so i will have to take your word on that one. cheers!

    this time he is to the left of Minling Trichen Rinpoche.

    actually, isn't this the version in yr book?

  5. Yes this is a variation of the shot that is in the book, which came courtesy of Namgyal Lama and Sonam.

    JR, thanks for the info and the great link! I agree it would be wonderful to find out who the young fellows in the front row are.

  14. Bhaka Tulku Rinpoche is the 3rd child on the left. I believe Chokyi Nyima is the 1st child on the right.
