He was also given the name Gyurme Kunzang Shenphen Thayé Lodrö Drimé by Shechen Gyaltsap. He might have died in Chinese captivity.

Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche said:

"Also at Shechen was a third great lama, Shechen Kongtrul Rinpoche. He lived on the other side of the mountain torrent from Gyaltsap Rinpoche's hermitage, on the flat top of another promontory in the mountainside a delightful place of meadows covered in summer with yellow flowers. Shechen Kongtrul was a great meditator and, like Shechen Gyaltsap, took no part in the monastery's administration, which was looked after by Shechen Rabjam."[1]
