When the Buddha  was about to die, he said,"After I die, I will be born again in the country of  Ugyen as Pema Jungney. "  today the country of Ugyen lies in the swat valley in Pakistan{not that swat in where you kill a person or rob a bank and a police gang comes to arrest you}


Many years later, a beautiful boy was born in a lotus in the middle of a lake in the country of Ugyen. He was  called Padma  Sambahava or Pema Jungney which means "born  from lotus".

Paro Taksang

Paro Taktsang is a legend place of where Guru Rinpoche came to subdue the evil spirits and demons riding on a tigress . Legend knows why even though those stones above you looks like it is going to crush you flat but the power of Guru Rinpoche does not let it happen.
