Lama Shenphen Rinpoche, is born in Western France, in 1969. Very early in his life, various special signs manifested during, and after, his birth. As a young child, Rinpoche was surprisingly interested by philosophical concept, as reincarnation.
Rinpoche connected with Tibet really at age 13, reading a book, and had some visions of his previous life, of landscape, mountains, of what will be understood later has the place he lived in Tibet. Age 15, Rinpoche discovered His capacity for healing from His hands, and started to benefit people with it.

Lama Shenphen formally engaged into Buddhism at age 16, when a Tibetan Lama came in his town (Lama Gendun Rinpoche, from Kagyu tradition). After some teachings, Rinpoche went to Nalanda Monastery (close to ‘Toulouse’, France). When Rinpoche saw some men dressed as Tibetan monk He was "full of joy". In a way, He was feeling back home.

Almost the same day, an important Lama arrived also at Nalanda: Gomo Tulku. This was in April 1985. It is during an appointment that Gomo Tulku, explained Rinpoche the meaning of visions He had when He was younger, telling him that He was the rebirth "of a great practitioner in Tibet". Gomo Tulku gave Rinpoche lot of important transmissions and informations.
In 1990, being 21 years old, Rinpoche took the full monk ordination with His Holiness the Dalaï-Lama in Dharamsala. In 1991, Rinpoche met an Oracle in Dharamsala, who told Him He has been living in a monastery of East Tibet, destroyed by Chinese invasion.
In 1992, deeper investigations, done by melong-readers and Lamas will bring the fact that Rinpoche was the Tulku of Lama Gendun Rabgye, from Kharnang monastery (Kham).

The enthronement finally took place in Tibet, in Kharnang monastery, in 2003. (here the letter from Kharnang monastery)

Lama Gendun Rabgye made a big part of his education in GyuMe Tantric College in Lhassa. After having even served six years as the superior of the Tantric practices in the College, He went back to Kharnang monastery where He became Superior for the Tantric part there. It is interesting to notice that He was already known as a hand healer. He died in Lhassa under Chinese occupation, around 1963.
Acharya Dawa Chhodak Rinpoche (well known Ngakpa and melong-reader) has said that when Gendun Rabgye passed away: “he had full understanding of the nature of pain, therefore there was not much difficulty.  When he died, he died in the posture of the sleeping lion, and stayed in that posture for 2 weeks.  He went to Tushita from there, and returned to Jambudvipa to serve sentient beings.”

For many years, Shenphen Tulku has been engaged into different social and humanitarian actions. "Titles are words, which doesn’t always mean much. We can judge a tree by the fruits it produces. To teach Compassion, humility, and such, is very nice, but one should also find ways to practice all this!". Still today, under the banner of “AMCHI Association”, Rinpoche is supporting over 60 Tibetans in exile (and some in Tibet), helping water and showers project in India.

Between 1998 & 2001, following the request of Khyabje Zopa Rinpoche, Spiritual Director of the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition(FPMT) , Shenphen Rinpoche has been director of a retreat Centre in Greece. Then, went to Spain, to open a small center, till 2002.
Since 2000, Shenphen Rinpoche is also travelling in the World to represent Buddhism in various occasions, mostly in Peace meetings and Conferences, sharing the message of non-violence of Dharma, and also teachings Dharma in several countries of Europe.

September 2002, Lama Shenphen Rinpoche arrived in Slovenia. The "Tibetan Buddhist Congregation - Dharmaling" is registered by the Government; Rinpoche is the Abbot. There is a regular and quite intensive program of teachings, practices, three times a week; and Rinpoche is receiving people for healing four days a week.
