SHECHEN GYALTSAP (1871–1926) was one of Jamgön Mipham Rinpoche's closest disciples and the root teacher of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. He was recognized at a very young age to possess the qualities of a bodhisattva and went on to become a devoted monk, scholar, and accomplished master of the Great Perfection, known for his warmth and simplicity. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche said that Shechen Gyaltsap's teachings were "worth more than all the gold in the entire world."
