Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö was recognized by Jamgön Kongtrul as one of the reincarnations of Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo due to a request by the Third Katok Situ Chökyi Gyatso, the nephew and disciple of Khyentse Wangpo, who wished to install a Khyentse incarnation at Katok Dorje Den Monastery in eastern Tibet. Thus when Chökyi Lodrö was seven years old he was enthroned at Katok and taken under the care of Katok Situ who oversaw his education. However, when the Khyentse Tulku installed at Khyentse Wangpo's primary seat at Dzongsar Tashi Lhatse Monastery passed away at the age of thirteen, Katok Situ was compelled to allow Chökyi Lodrö, fifteen years old at the time, to be installed as his replacement. From then on he became known as Dzongsar Khyentse and would go on to become one of the most highly revered Tibetan masters of the twentieth century.
Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö was one of five incarnations of Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo recognized by Jamgön Kongtrul. By the time he was approached by the Third Katok Situ, Kongtrul had already identified incarnations of Khyentse Wangpo's body, speech, and mind, therefore he sought out the incarnation of his master's enlightened activity.
