Nyala Rinpoche Rigdzin Changchub Dorje (? – 1961/1978) was a teacher of Dzogchen, terton and practitioner of Tibetan medicine. He was born in the Nyarong (nyag rong) region of East Tibet (Kham). Teachers of Nyala Rinpoche included Adzom Drugpa (1842-1924),[1][not in citation given] Nyala Pema Dündul (1816–1872), and Bön luminary Shardza Tashi Gyaltsen (1859-1934) (shar rdza bkra shis rgyal mtshan).[2][not in citation given]

Nyala Rinpoche organized and lead a community of Dzogchen practitioners in Nyalagar also known as Khamdogar (khams mdo sgar), Dedrol area,[3] Kham. In 1978 he is said to have attained rainbow body. Chogyal Namkhai Norbu (b. 1938) was his "heart-son" (principal disciple) (Wylie: snying gi bu). Rinpoche also had a daughter, Atha Lhamo.
