Lama Jigme Rinpoche Lama Jigme Rinpoche

Lama Jigme Rinpoche was born into the family of His Holiness the 16th Karmapa and as the brother of His Eminence Shamar Rinpoche, as the reincarnation of the Tibetan yogi. He received extensive teachings from the Karmapa, who, during his first visit in the West, left him there as his representative. Since that time, Lama Jigme Rinpoche is guiding Karmapa’s main seat in Europe, Dhagpo Kagyu Ling in France.

He has given countless Dharma teachings there and has watched the center grow from a small farm house in the countryside into a large center. Besides his great organizational skills, he is highly respected as a lama. Many have already benefited greatly from his profound knowledge, his understanding of western lifestyle, and his practical wisdom, warmth and humor.
