Jampel Lodoy, also spelled with variations of Dzhampel Lodoi or Jambal Lodoi, (21 August 1975 – 23 June 2020) was a Russian Tuvan Buddhist lama who served as the Kamby Lama of Tuva for two tenures. The Kamby Lama, or Supreme Lama, is the highest Buddhist religious authority in Tuva.[1] Jampel Lodoy was first elected Kamby Lama from 2005 to 2010.[1] During the 2010s, Jampel Lodoy became the abbot of Ustuu-Khuree, one of the largest Buddhist monasteries and temples in Tuva, which had been destroyed in 1937, but reopened in 2012.[1]
On 29 November 2019 Jampel Lodoy was elected the 8th Kamby Lama of Tuva by a congress of Buddhist clergy.[1] He was enthroned on 19 December 2019 in a ceremony held at the House of Folk Art, the headquarters of the Tuvan Ministry of Culture in Kyzyl.[1] However, just seven months later, Jampel Lodoy died in office from complications of COVID-19 during the pandemic in Russia.[2][3][4]
