Jomo Menmo
Jo mo sMan mo Padma mTsho sKyid
Khandro Chenmo Yeshé Tsogyel said:
My activity emanation will appear in Tsang, and she will be known as Jomo Menmo.
Jomo Menmo was the incarnation of Ma-gÇig Labdrön. She was born in the male earth monkey year of 1248 and passed into the sky-dimension in 1283. The Direct Mind incarnation of Jomo Menmo was Khyungchen Aro Lingma, who was born in 1886 and attained rainbow body in 1923.
Khandro Déchen comments:
The Aro gTér incarnation lineage begins with Yeshé Tsogyel and the line of
incarnations proceeds through Ma-gÇig Labdrön and Jomo Menmo to Aro Lingma. A
gulf of considerable duration exists between Jomo Menmo and Aro Lingma and there
is no current incarnation of Aro Lingma. There have been many emanations and
incarnations of Yeshé Tsogyel and also of Ma-gÇig Labdrön and Jomo Menmo within
other lineages of both Nyingma and Kagyüd traditions, but within the Aro gTér the
line is succinct and powerful.
