Short biography
The Great Palyul Pema Lhundrub Gyatso (1660–1727), was born in the province of Do Kham in a place known as Seng-gang in the eleven rabjung year of the Iron Rat. His birth was prophesised by Rigdzin Dudul Dorje, as the reincarnation of Sogpo Lhapal, one of the twenty-five disciples of Guru Rinpoche.
From the age of eight, he started to receive all the Namchö empowerment, transmission and secret instruction from Namcho Mingyur Dorje. At sixteen years of age, he went to Palyul Monastery to receive more profound instruction on personal attainment from his uncle, Rigdzin Kunzang Sherab. By the time he was twenty-five, he came into direct experience with the true nature of the mind. Under the continued guidance of his uncle Kunzang Sherab who transmitted to him the Secret Oral Transmission lineage, Lhundrub Gyatso advanced his accomplishment with great enthusiastic perseverance. He took on the responsibility of transmitting the sutra and tantra at the Palyul Monastery after Kunzang Sherab dissolved his body into the pure realm of the ultimate truth at the age of sixty-four. At the age of fifty-four, he became the second Throne Holder of the Palyul Lineage.
At the age of sixty-eight, on the tenth day of Saga Dawa in the year of the Fire Sheep (1727), Pema Lhundrub Gyatso entered into a state of meditative equipoise, then his body dissolved into the sphere of clear light while loud thunder reverberated and streaks of lightning lit up the sky.
