Is Tsem Tulku the incarnation of Drakpa Gyaltsen?
He just posted on his website that his personal lineage includes Duldzin Drakpa Gyaltsen.
His article is titled "The Fourth Edition of the Promise".

Those who know Rinpoche, know a lama who is extremely humble and down to earth with no airs of grandeur whatsoever. However, Rinpoche’s line of previous incarnations include some of the most important personages and erudite scholars to have shaped and made Tibetan Buddhism into the potent spiritual practice that it is today.
This list includes the likes of Magadha Sangmo, a student of the historical Buddha whose reverence for Lord Shakyamuni was legendary; DULDZIN DRAKPA GYALTSEN, a direct disciple of Lama Tsongkhapa, the founder of the Gelugpa school of Tibetan Buddhism; Mahasiddha Virupa, the great 9th century yogi and Abbot of Nalanda Monastery; and Thonmi Sambhota, a key minister of the 7th century Emperor Songtsen Gampo who was the first to bring Buddhist texts from India to Tibet and who invented the Tibetan script.

This is the first time I have heard about this.
Does anyone have any further information about Tsem Tulku and Duldzin Drakpa Gyaltsen being one and the same?
