Chime Tenpai Nyima

[3] She studied with her uncle Kunga Lodro, who had had a vision prophesying, among other things, that she would be one of the closest disciples who would carry on his teachings.

[2] In 1782, she took novice vows from the twenty-fifth abbot of the Sakya Lhakhang Chenmo, Jampa Chokyi Tashi, who gave her the ordination name by which she has come to be known, Chime Tenpai Nyima.

[1] When Kunga Lodro died in 1783, she recited the Vajrayoginī prayers and accompanying offerings for his funeral rites.

[1] It is unknown exactly when she died, but it is known she lived a long life, and she was called Rikmo Dung, or Old Noble Woman of the Rigdzin Palace.

[1] After she died, a memorial statue of Vajrayoginī with a silver crown and ornaments inlaid with precious gems was made to contain her relics, which was installed in the Lhakhang Chenmo at Sakya.
