Khentrul Lodrö T’hayé Rinpoche was born in eastern Tibet in the region of Golok, where he is now the abbot of Mardo Tashi Choling Monastery. At the age of seven, Khentrul Rinpoche began the formal practice of the Buddhist path by taking monastic ordination, studying and practicing under his main root guru, His Holiness Jigmé Puntsok Rinpoche. After spending many years studying with H.H. Katok Moktza Rinpoche at Katok Gonpa in Tibet, as well as for five years with H.H. Penor Rinpoche at Namdroling Monastery in India, Khentrul Rinpoche received the degree of khenpo (equivalent to a Ph.D.) from each of the three monasteries. During that time, Rinpoche also spent three years in retreat.

H.H. Moktza Rinpoche formally recognized Khentrul Rinpoche as a reincarnation (tulku) of Katok Druptopchenpo Namkha Gyamtso, a highly accomplished spiritual practitioner of Katok Monastery, and thus he is called a khentrul, someone who is both a khenpo and a tulku.
