Dzogchen Rinpoche Jigme Losel Wangpo, 54, has been selected as the new head of the Nyingma sect, succeeding Kathok Getse Rinpoche who died in an accident in Nepal in November last year. Dzogchen Rinpoche has trained extensively in both the Gelug and Nyingma schools of Tibetan Buddhism, his training was overseen by HH the Dalai Lama personally.
