In this video I interview Kyungpo Ngagwang Jampa Gyaltsen (ངག་དབང་། - 琼布活佛). He is considered a Living Buddha (活佛) and was one of the 3 children in the running to become the Panchen Lama. I sat down with him in the Tashi Lhunpo Monastery.

Note, there was quite a vibrant debate on my Twitter account regarding the use of the word "Living Buddha". While this is the literal translation of the word that has been used for hundreds of years, this word doesn't seem to make as much sense in English to many. Kyungpo was identified as the second reincarnation of Kyungpo Rinpoche of Tashi Gephel monastery in Zhad Thongmon County in Shigatse.
