Nanam Dorje Dudjom - one of King Trisong Detsen’s ministers, sent to Nepal to invite Padmasambhava to Tibet. A mantrika who had reached perfection in the two stages of development and completion, he could fly with the speed of the wind and traverse solid matter. Rigdzin Gödem (1337-1408) and Pema Trinley (1641-1718), the great vidyadhara of Dorje Drak monastery in central Tibet, are both considered reincarnations of Dorje Dudjom. He is also the root incarnation of Sogyal Rinpoche. Dorje Dudjom means ‘Indestructible Subduer of Mara.’
