Small Biography[edit]

The 2nd Gyalwang Drukpa Gyalwa Kunga Paljor Rinpoche was the fourteenth throne holder of Ralung Monastery and second Gyalwang Drukchen. Son of Drukpa Sherab Zangpo. Popularly known as Gyalwang Je this famed master of the Drukpa tradition was born in 1428 at Ralung Tagsangkha, Rwa lung Stag tshang kha, son of Drukpa Sherab Zangpo (chos rje shes rab bzang po), a scion of the Gya (rgya) lineage of Ralung, and Kunga Dzom (kun dga' 'dzom), a niece or granddaughter of Tshul bzangs Du dben sha. Although all previous Ralung throne holders had been born into this branch of the Gya family desended from Lha Nyen and Lha Bum the elder brothers of Tsangpa Gyare Yeshe Dorje, Kunga Paljor was the first to be recognised as the actual rebirth of Tsangpa Gyare (1161-1211) the founder of the Drukpa School and an emination of Avalokiteshvara. Thus he came to be regarded as the Second Gyalwang Drukchen.

He began his studies at an early age with slob dpon dkon mchog rdo rje. He received teachings from such masters as Mkhan chen Kun dga' dpal, Mnga' ris pa Yon tan seng ge, Sgom sde Dbang phyug blo gros, 'Khrul zhig Yon tan bzang po, Rngog Byang chub dpal, his 'uncle' Drung rdor ba, Kha rag Grub chen Bsod rgyal ba, Vanaratna, Ngor chen Kun dga' bzang po, Chos rje Don grub dpal, Chos rje Bsod nams rnam rgyal, 'Gos Lo tsâ ba Gzhon nu dpal, etc.

He was active in spreading Buddhist teachings in Bhutan, where he went three times and spent a number of years in the Bumthang (bum thang) and Paro areas establishing many temples. He died in 1476 after a life rich in spiritual experience. His biography is filled with extremely interesting information about the religious & secular life of the 15th century.
