His Holiness Karma Kuchen Rinpoche is the 12th Throne Holder of

Karma Kuchen Rinpoche (Karma Thegchog Nyingpo).
H.H. Karma Kuchen Rinpoche studied and perfected the teachings of
Namcho (Sky Teachings) preliminaries (ordinary and extraordinary),
Tsalung and up to Dzogpachenpo under the direct guidance of H.H.
Penor Rinpoche. He also took the Bhikshu and Bodhisattva vows, and
received the Namcho, Ratna Lingpa’s revelations and Rinchen Terzoed
empowerments from H.H. Penor Rinpoche. In addition, he received
many teachings under the late H.H. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche,
Dodrupchen Rinpoche, Nyoshul Khenpo Rinpoche, and many other great
siddhas. Keeping in view of his wonderful qualities of a master,
H.H. Penor Rinpoche appointed him as Head of Palyul Mother
Monastery in Tibet in 1994. On 14 August 2000, he was formally
enthroned as the lineage holder.Since H.H. Penor Rinpoche’s
parinirvana, H.H. Kuchen Rinpoche has begun to care for Namdroling
Monastery in India and Palyul centers worldwide as well.
