Lama Nyedon Rinpoche was born in Nyeshang in 1953. When he was 13 years old, his parents offered him to His Holiness Karmapa, in whom he took refuge. His Holiness also prophesised that Lama Nyedon Rinpoche in future will bring great benefit to the community in Nyeshang. For six years, from the age of 13, Lama Nyedon Rinpoche studied and received empowerments from His Holiness and four Regents. At the age of 19, he took the novice vows and at 25 he took the Bikshu Vows. He graduated from his studies in Rumtek at the age of 27 and for the next 3 years he accompanied His Holiness Karmapa on Dharma tours in the Himalayan Regions. At the age of 31, His Holiness Karmapa sent him to undergo the traditional three years retreat in Rumtek under the supervision of Ven Bokar Rinpoche. On completion of three years retreat, His Holiness sent him as his envoy to Nyeshang Monastery where he served as Head and Administrator until now.
