Dungse Yangsi Gyana Ta, Jigme Pema Osel Rinpoche, was born on January 7th, 2013, to Dungse Garab Rinpoche and Khandro Rinchen Paldon. Dungse GyanaTa Rinpoche’s elder sister is Semo Shunia Ta..

In 2015, he was recognized by H.H. Dodrupchen Rinpoche IV (Thupten Thinley Pal Zangpo) as the reincarnation of H.H. Kyabje Dungse Thinley Norbu Rinpoche. The enthronement ceremony was taken place at the Kudung Stupa of Dungse Thinley Norbu Rinpoche in Dagophu, Paro, Bhutan. H.H. Muksang Kuchhen Rinpoche, H.H. Kathok Situ Rinpoche, H.H. Chhoeling Rinpoche and Dan-mo Rinpoche, Venerable representative of Dodrupchhen Rinpoche, Venerable representative of Mindrolling Monastery were present during enthronement ceremony.

Dungse Yangsi Gyanta Rinpoche was enthroned in New York on September 8th 2024, in a special ceremony held at Kunzang Gatshal, the residence and private retreat land of Dungse Thinley Norbu Rinpoche in upstate New York. This enthronement was significant because it symbolized the recognition of Yangsi Rinpoche’s role not only for the Tibetan community in the United States, but also for the many Western students connected with the Dudjom Tersar lineage through Dungse Thinley Norbu Rinpoche’s teachings and activities in America.
