Machik Labdrön
Machik Lapdrön - the Sole Mother, Machik Labdrön (1055-1153), who, with Padampa Sangye, initiated in Tibet the lineage of the practice of Chö [Tib.], which means ‘cutting through’ ego-clinging and other attachments.
Machik Labdrön and Padampa Sangye stayed for some time in Bhutan near Taktsang Monastery. Their meditation caves can still be found. A temple has been built at the place of Machik Labdrön's meditation cave. The rocks nearby are said to contain termas hidden there by Machik Labdrön.
