Clearly an extraordinary prodigy Adzom Rinpoche began his studies at the age of 5 and undertook full time retreat at 11. At his teacher's request, Rinpoche began teaching Dzogchen in 1984 when he was 13. Today he teaches regularly at his monastery and seeks to better the lives of monks, nuns, and lay schoolchildren.
