Vajrayogini 
His Eminence Xiazhu Qiuyang Rinpoche
H. E. Xiazhu Qiuyang Rinpoche of the Geluk Sect is a current incarnation of the great Mahasiddha Naropa (1016-1100), the venerable leader of 100,000 dakinis. Naropa, a former abbot at the famous Nalanda University in north-east India, was Master Marpa's guru and the disciple of Tilopa. Master Tilopa received the dharma directly from Dorje Chang Buddha as did Naropa's sister, Lady Niguma. H. E. Xiazhu Qiuyang was born in 1945, and has become greatly accomplished in Dakini Dharma, having received guidance and empowerment from Vajrayogini herself.
H.E. Dharma King Xiazhu Qiuyang has just stamped his fingerprint onto the congratulatory letter he wrote to H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. Click photos for enlargements.
See the book H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III for a more detailed biography and H.E. Xiazhu Qiuyang Rinpoche's commentary on the accomplishments of His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu.
