\u201cJetsunma Tamdrin Wangmo, also known as Jetsunma Kalsang Ch\u00f6kyi Nyima. She is from the Phuntsok Phodrang. You know we have two palaces. I am from the Dolma Phodrang and she is from the Phuntsok Phodrang, which is now in Seattle. She is extremely well-known, even in our Kh\u00f6n lineage history. There is one full chapter describing her life. She is a very great master. She traveled to Kham, the eastern part of Tibet region. There are many stories about how the protectors served her. She manifested in different people and different kind of forms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is mentioned in the biography of my grandfather (Dragshul Thinley Rinchen; the thirty-ninth\u202fSakya throneholder) that she was one of his most important masters. In his biography, he gave her a very high title and wrote, \u201cMy Guru, Jetsunma Tamdrin Wangmo is Vajrayogin\u012b in human form.\u201d She is a very great master. My grandfather received Lamdr\u00e9 Lobshed\u2014the Uncommon Lamdr\u00e9, the Vajrayogin\u012b cycle of teachings, and the Vajram\u0101l\u0101 the series of major empowerments from her. She is a very great master and practitioner who is recently known. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jetsunma Tamdrin Wangmo\u202ftravelled within the Kham region for some time. Because Kham is very far away from Sakya, it was very difficult and very rare for people there to go to Sakya and receive the blessings of the Kh\u00f6n lineage. So, when she traveled\u202fto Sakya,\u202fpeople felt very great devotion, especially the Sakyapas in Kham. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
From all\u202faccounts,\u202fJetsunma Tamdrin Wangmo was\u202fquite beautiful. One story involves her travels to Tri Hor, east of Derge. Nowadays, Tri Hor is in Sichuan.\u202fThe local governor there was not a good man, being a womanizer who was\u202falways chasing beautiful women.\u202fAnd when\u202fhe heard that Tamdrin Wangmo was attracting so many followers, he decided that he wanted to meet her. She had a reputation as being a very holy teacher, but as I mentioned earlier, also very beautiful. So Tamdrin Wangmo received a message that the governor wanted to meet her, and that she should set a time for him to come.\u202fHer attendant was alarmed\u202fand told Tamdrin Wangmo that they should leave, as he was a bad man and might harm her. But Jetsunma said, \u201cNo, it doesn\u2019t matter. You can make an appointment. He can come to see me.\u202fIt\u2019s all right, there won\u2019t be any problem.\u201d So the appointment was made. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On that day,\u202fhe appeared and entered Jetsunma\u2019s room to offer her a katag, in a very nervous manner. After that he rushed out of the room, shaking like a leaf. His attendant asked him, \u201cWhy did you leave so quickly? Yesterday you were so eager to meet Jetsunma, and now you just left straight away. Why did you do this?\u201d The governor said: \u201cOh, she looked terrifying! She had a human body, but with the face of a pig, one with long tusks!\u201d Thus, she showed she was a real Vajrav\u0101r\u0101h\u012b. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another time, while she was travelling in the Kham area, her party came to a place where there were many bandits, some of which stole all the horses and mules that carried their luggage. Everyone in the party wanted to go and get the animals back. But she said, \u201cNo, this won\u2019t be necessary.\u201d She did a Mah\u0101k\u0101la\u202fritual, whereupon suddenly black dogs and black birds appeared from everywhere and surrounded the bandits\u2019 tents, threatening them and frightening them. They were so terrified that they immediately brought all the stolen horses and mules back to Jetsunma!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
