Khenchen Tashi Ozer (mkhan chen bkra shis 'od zer, 1836-1910), an important student of the 19th century Rime masters Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo and Jamgon Kongtrul. He was famous for both his learning as well as his realisation. Khenchen Tashi Ozer stayed most of his time in the Palpung monastery of the Tai Situ Rinpoches and spent his final years in retreat in Jamgon Kongtrul's hermitage Tsadra Rinchen Drak. It is said that he and another close student of Jamgon Kongtrul, Karma Tashi Chöpel, both of whom spent their final years together, never kept more provisions in Tsadra than what would last for a single day, in order to constantly remind themselves of impermanence.
