Dudjom Rinpoche
His Holiness Kyabjé Jigdral Yeshe Dorje, best known as Dudjom Rinpoche (Tib: བདུད་འཇོམས་ Wylie: bdud-'joms) is held to be the reincarnation of Terton Dudjom Lingpa, Garwang Dudjom Pawo. He was a "householder" lama, rather than a monk, and was married twice, producing nine children, the eldest of whom is H.H. Dungse Thinley Norbu Rinpoche.
