Shamar Rinpoche (Shamarpa)

The present Shamar Rinpoche is the 14th incarnation of a realized master. A great boddisatva on the same level as Gyalwa Karmapa. The first Shamarpa was born in 1283, and like Karmapa, Shamarpa started to reincarnate. For the benefit of all sentient beings. The 2nd Karmapa (Karma Pakshi) predicted this "In the future I will manifest in two Nirmanakaya forms". The 4th Karmapa declared that the Shamarpa was another emanation of himself. 

Shamar Rinpoche visited our place first time August 2004, where Rinpoche consecrated the stupa.

Prediction About the Future of the Kagyu Lineage and Kunzig Shamar Rinpoches life by Chogyam Thrungpa Rinpoche (1939-1987)

This letter comes from the International Karma Kagyu Buddhist Association (IKKBA). While living at Rumtek monastery in Sikkim, Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche received this prediction letter from Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche.

Before writing this prediction, Trungpa Rinpoche did the practice of prasena for Dorje Yudronma, a female deity. He invoked Yudronma and asked her to give a prediction concerning the future life of Shamar Rinpoche. Then, following tradition, the text of the prediction appeared in a mirror. Trungpa Rinpoche copied the words in his own hand, composing the letter below.:

Jaya Hoh!
The Vajra-Spring is permanent and unchanging.
Unobstructed Yudronma (1) revealed through the list of verses profound, clear symbolic words.
The devi (2) of long life who shines like an emerald,
Always keep at the center of your heart.
Youth is the messenger of the god of desire who will be burned by the fire of samadhi (3).
You should do the practice on the wrathful aspect of Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava).
You, the Ruby-crowned one (4), may burn away the darkness of the era.
In your 50^th year (5),
Do the practice of the essence of the Buddha of Long Life and
The practice of Vajrakilaya to counter black magic.
Wash yourself with the water of Mamaki deities.
An elephant who has been intoxicated by poison will slander and create fighting within the lineage.
So take extreme caution against the corruption and trembling within the lineage(6).
The wealthy yellow dialecticians(7) will harm the genuine lineage of the Kagyu dharma,
So you should strive to sharpen the spear-tip of your mind.
The Vajra-rock which is golden and shining is where you should abide in holy meditation.
You should do the three year, three month retreat.
Through the white luminosity of Vajrasattva you will go to the place of the Dharmakaya which is beyond meditation.
Keep that meaning in your heart.
Samaya.
