The First Dodrubchen, Jigme Trinle Özer

1745–1821

The First Dodrubchen Jigme Trinle Wozer (1745–1821) was a prominent Tibetan Buddhist master and the principal heir to Jigme Lingpa's Longchen Nyingtik lineage. Born in Golok's Do valley, he trained under renowned teachers, including the Second Shechen Rabjam and Dzogchen masters, and undertook extensive pilgrimages across Tibet, receiving key transmissions such as the Khandro Nyingtik. Known for his profound retreats and visionary experiences, he established significant religious centers, including Dodrubchen Monastery, and spread the Longchen Nyingtik teachings widely in Kham. As a trusted spiritual advisor to the Derge royal family and the Tibetan government, he performed pivotal rituals and contributed to regional stability. Revered as a treasure revealer and author, his disciples included luminaries like Do Khyentse Yeshe Dorje and Dza Patrul Rinpoche, cementing his legacy as a cornerstone of the Nyingma tradition.
