Born in Lhasa, Tibet, in 1939, Kyabje Gelek Rimpoche was recognized as an incarnate lama at the age of four. Tutored from an early age by some of Tibet’s greatest masters, Rinpoche gained renown for his powers of memory, intellectual judgment and penetrating insight.

He was director of Tibet House in Delhi, India and a radio host at All India Radio. He conducted over 1000 interviews in compiling an oral history of the fall of Tibet to the Communist Chinese. In the late 1970’s Rimpoche was directed to teach Western students by his teachers.

In 1988, Rinpoche founded Jewel Heart, a Tibetan Buddhist Center. His Collected Works now include over 32 transcripts of his teachings, numerous articles as well as the national bestseller Good Life, Good Death and the Tara Box: Rituals for Protection and Healing from the Female Buddha. Rinpoche is a U.S. citizen and lives in Michigan.
