There were sixteen renowned Arhats in India. The Neten Rinpoche’s lineage can be traced back to the 11th Arhat, named Lam Tran Ten Pharpha LamChung ( Sanskrit name ChudaPantaka ),

Later on, the Arhat Pharpha LamChung (Chudapantaka) was reincarnated many times in both India and Tibet as Mahasiddha Bodhisattvas and became one of the six Neten disciples of the Great Lama Je Tsongkhapa, named Tulku Neten Kunga Bum. The 1st Tulku Neten Kunga Bum BUILT the Jungpa Monastery in Lithang-Kham, Tibet.

The present His Eminence Tulku Neten Rinpoche Tenzin Gelek was born just over one year after the passing away of the 8th reincarnated Tulku Neten Ngawang Lobsang Kunga.

In the year 1986, in the SeraMey Monastery in South India, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama graciously enthroned the present Tulku Neten Rinpoche Tenzin Gelek as the 9th reincarnation of the Tulku Neten's lineage, the HIGHEST THRONE HOLDER LAMA of the Jungpa Monastery in Lithang-Kham region, Tibet.

His Eminence Tulku Neten Rinpoche secured the highest Geshe Lharampa Degree (Ph.D in Buddhist Sutra Studies) from the SeraMey Monastic University in India and soon afterwards, he joined the Gyumed Tantric Monastery for higher Tantric studies. After strenuous studies and practice, he appeared for the final examination in the presence of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Abbots of Gyumed and other monasteries. He received the advanced degree of Ngagrampa (Highest degree in Tantric Studies), then accepted the position of Discipline Master and taught at the Gyumed Tantric Monastery. Later on he went back and taught Dharma to sanghas at the SeraMey Monastic University.

Since the year 2006, His Eminence The 9th Tulku Neten Rinpoche Tenzin Gelek has been residing in Toronto, Canada but travels extensively across the globe for public talks and giving teachings to religious, educational, healthcare and social institutions.

From the year 2003 to 2009, the present His Eminence The 9th Tulku Neten Rinpoche Tenzin Gelek COMPLETELY REBUILT his nine lifetimes Jungpa Monastery which has been previously destroyed.

From the year 2014-2017, a Prayer Hall (Nyungne Lhakhang) has been supported to build by His Eminence Tulku Neten Rinpoche, next to the Jungpa monastery, for people in Jungpa-Lithang to pray and practise.

On April 4, 2024: His Eminence Tulku Neten Rinpoche was appointed by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama as His Eminence Kgyabje KHEN RINPOCHE NETEN TULKU TENZIN GELEK, the 92nd Abbot of the SeraMey Monastery in India. The Enthronement Ceremony will be held on June 24, 2024 in the SeraMey Monastery.
