===Short Biography===
Jetsün Mingyur Paldron was born in 1699 in the Earth Rabbit year as the daughter of [[Chögyal Terdag Lingpa]] and his consort, [[Phuntsok Paldron]]. By 13 years of age, she had received extensive instructions and teachings from her father and had accomplished many practices.
 
== Early Practice and Transmissions ==
At 14, she received the entire transmissions of [[Thug Je Chenpo De Sheg Kun Du]] from [[Lochen Dharmashri]] and mastered the [[Tsa-lung and Thigle]] practices. Jetsun Mingyur Paldron also received many profound teachings and instructions from other great masters of the day such as [[Kathog Rigzin Shabdrung Jurme Shenphen Wangpo]], [[Shenyen Ogyen Rabten]], [[Soton Thutob Namgyal]], [[Duldzin Kunga Lodrö]] and [[Lopon Sonam Lodrö Gyaltsen]]. Consequently, she accomplished practices in both the [[old and new traditions]].
 
== Escape from the Mongols and the Start of Teaching ==
Chögyal Terdag Lingpa passed into Parinirvana in 1714. In 1717, the [[Dzingar Mongols]] invaded Tibet and began destroying monasteries. Being in Central Tibet, [[Mindrolling]] was an easy target of this as well as other invasions. The Mongols razed the monastery and killed [[Lochen Dharmashri]] and [[Pema Jurme Gyatso]], the eldest son of Terdag Lingpa. The younger son, [[Gyalsay Drinchen Rinchen Namgyal]], managed to escape into Kham through the help of the family of the [[Khochhen Rinpoche]]. Jetsün Mingyur Paldron also escaped to Sikkim where she lived and taught for two years, turning the wheel of Dharma for many fortunate beings, firmly establishing the Dharma in Sikkim. Mingyur Paldron also founded the [[Pema Yangtse]] monastery there.
 
== Return and Rebuilding of Mindrolling ==
After the Mongols left Tibet, Jetsün Mingyur Paldron, who was then twenty years of age, and her younger brother [[Drinchen Rinchen Namgyal]], returned to Mindrolling. They found it in ruins. Together, with their courageous and tireless efforts, they re-built the monastery and re-established the sangha, making Mindrolling once more the center of learning and transmission of the Dharma.
 
== Teaching, Writing, and Samten Tse ==
At the age of thirty-three, Jetsün Mingyur Paldron gave the empowerments, oral transmissions and explanations of the collected works of Chögyal Terdag Lingpa and the [[Nyingthig Yabzhi]] to over 270 disciples and thus insured the continuance of these precious transmissions. Jetsun Mingyur Paldron also established the [[Samten Tse nunnery]] a short distance from the Mindrolling monastery. It was there that she spent most of the remainder of her life, practicing, teaching and composing many precious texts and inspiring many to follow the path she embodied.
 
== Parinirvana ==
Jestün Mingyur Paldron passed into Parinirvana at the age of 70 in 1769. The life of this great female master is an inspiration to all practitioners, especially women, to practice and realize the pure Dharma for the sake of all sentient beings.
