Born in 1899, Khenpo Jigme Yonten Gonpo studied with many great masters including HE Fifth Dzogchen Rinpoche Tupten Choki Dorje, Great Khenpo of Jagong Shenpen Nangwa, Chadrel Kunga Palden, and many more. He received teachings on sutra, tantra and the general sciences, but most importantly Khenpo received all the empowerments, guidance and personal instructions of the Heart Essence of the Great Perfection and became the most important realised lineage holder of his day.

From the throne of Shira Sing Scriptural College, he taught extensively on the sutras and tantras and in the latter part of his life became full time tutor to HE Sixth Dzogchen Rinpoche Jigdral Jangchup Dorje.
