The later Venerable Gyalton Rinpoche Ugyen Jigme Choekyi Singee was born in Chungpo Gyalton Valley in the Tibetan Earth Monkey year, 1908. From an early age he pursued studies in Tibetan Buddhism, reading and writing. He was one of the principal disciples of H.E. the 11th Tai Situpa, Pema Wangchuk Gyalpo and Dzongsar Khyentse Choekyi Lodoe.
+
He was born in 1908 in Khyungpo in [[Kham]], East Tibet and was recognized as the [[tulku]] of [[Saltong Shogom]], an incarnation of one of [[Gampopa]]'s three main disciples known as '[[Three Men from Kham|the three men of Kham]]'. He was also known as an emanation of [[Manjushrimitra]], [[Nupchen Sangye Yeshe]] and Tsöndrü Senge. He studied with [[Palpung Situ Pema Wangchok Gyalpo|Situ Rinpoche]] at [[Palpung Monastery]] in Tibet, and then with Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö, becoming one of his foremost disciples. He completed more than 100 million mantras of [[Amitabha]] and accomplished the practice of many other deities in retreat. He prostrated all the way from Kham to the [[Jokhang]] in [[Lhasa]] and then from Lhasa to [[Tshurphu]].
  
When His holiness the 16th Gyalwang Karmapa received teachings from the 11th Tai Situpa, Gyalton Rinpoche was also present receiving the teachings. H.H. the 16th Karmapa awarded Gyalton Rinpoche the title of Khenchen of the Kagyupa sect for his high attainment and learning.
+
He lived upstairs in the Palace Monastery in Sikkim, and was a teacher of [[Sogyal Rinpoche]], [[Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche]], [[Ringu Tulku]] and others. Towards the end of his life, following illness brought on by the hardships of a life spent in almost continuous retreat, often with very little food, he went on a pilgrimage to the sacred sites of Nepal (December 1969 - February 1970), giving away what little he owned as offerings before the ancient shrines he visited. He passed away on March 22nd 1970, remaining in the posture of [[Vajradhara]] for more than 48 hours, before his body was embalmed. In accordance with his wishes, expressed to the King of Sikkim, his body was cremated in the sacred site of [[Tashiding]] and his relics entombed in a [[stupa]] near that of his master, Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö.
  
Gyalton Rinpoche accompanied H.H. the 16th Karmapa during His Holiness’ visit to the holy places in India in the year 2500 Buddha Jyanti (1956).

Gyalton Rinpoche was appointed as Spiritual Guru to the Chogyal (the King) of Sikkim by H.H. the 16th Karmapa at the request of the late Chogyal Sir Tashi Namgyal of Sikkim. Rinpoche gave many Empowerments and Reading Transmissions in many monasteries throughout Sikkim and was very highly respected by the people of Sikkim who were deeply devoted to him. He remained in the Royal Palace Monastery until he passed away in the Tibetan Iron Dog Year, 1970. His monks continued their routine in the Royal Palace Monastery and awaited his reincarnation.
 
 
In the year 1983 H.E. the 12th Tai Situ Rinpoche recognized the son of Kunzang Topden and Yangzom of the Martam family, an eminent Sikkimese family, as the new incarnation of the late Gyalton Rinpoche. The previous Gyalton Rinpoche had been one of the present Tai Situpa’s teachers, along with Thrangu Rinopoche, Kalu Rinpoche and the previous Sangye Nyenpa Rinpoche.
 
 
The initial ceremonies of the enthronement which are bestowing the name and first recognition ceremonies took place at Rumtek Monastery, the main seat of the Kagyupa in India. H.E. Tai Situ Rinpoche led the group before the stupa of the late H.H. 16th Karmapa at Rumtek and after the necessary ritual was performed, the group proceeded to the Gangtok Palace Monastery where they were received by the Royal Family and noble families of Sikkim, as well as government officials and a large number of Tibetan and Sikkimese devotees. The enthronement ceremony was conducted by H.E. the 12th Tai Situpa during which time the young Tulku consistently beat on a drum from the beginning to the end of the ceremony. Prince Wangchuk, the Royal Grandmother and other members of the Royal Family, officials and disciples all paid respect after the young Gyalton Rinpoche was formally enthroned.
 
 
Gyalton Rinpoche remained in the Royal Palace Monastery learning Tibetan reading and calligraphy under Gyalton Ghelong who was one of the main disciples of the previous Gyalton Rinpoche. He was appointed as his main tutor by H.E. Tai Situ Rinpoche.
 
 
In the year 1989 the young Rinpoche came to Palpung Sherab ling, the main seat of H.E. Tai Situ Rinpoche in India for the time. Here he remained under the guidance of his supreme guru the 12th Tai Situpa and other gurus such as the Very Venerable Salshey Rinpoche for about two years. He also attended a regular English medium school and university for about ten years and took up science as his main stream. While in school, Rinpoche studied different languages such as English, Hindi and Nepali.
 
 
In February 2002, he once again returned to Palpung Sherab Ling to undergo higher Buddhist studies under the guidance of his supreme guru, H.E. the 12th Tai Situpa and other gurus. He is learning and mastering the different rituals, Buddhist philosophy, the lama dance and the different musical instruments used in Tibetan Buddhist rituals. He has been appointed the Vajra Master of Palpung Sherab Ling by H.E. Tai Situpa and has been undertaking this responsibility for the past four years.
 
 
In accordance with the wishes of H.E. Tai Situ Rinpoche, Gyalton Rinpoche has travelled to different parts of India as well as the Kingdom of Bhutan as the representative of His Eminence. Presently Gyalton Rinpoche resides in Palpung Sherab Ling, the seat of H.E. the 12th Tai Situpa.
