A cord runs invisibly through each bead.
Through every moment of human experience, invisibly,
is the space of wakeful knowing. -Erik Pema Kunsang
In a rocky cave in a solitary place,
I am never without disenchantment.
For my teacher, the Buddha of the three times,
I am never without a mind of yearning devotion.
-Milarepa
From HŪM the wisdom vajra,
from ĀH the bell resounding with the sound of emptiness.
The signs of means and prajñā are taken in hand.
-The Practice of Trinley Nyingpo
I will now free myself however I can
from the mire of these different conflicting
thoughts, and, even if just for a single instant,
focus on the Tathāgata’s body
-Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche
Then buddhas and sublime great bodhisattvas chose
To emanate and be born there as lotsawas and scholars,
To raise high the victory-banner with its jewel, the untarnished teachings of Buddha:
So may this teaching of the lotus-born buddha flourish and spread! -Mipham Rinpoche

Thangtong Gyalpo was born in 1361 in the village of Ölba Lhadsé in central Tibet. An emanation of the Indian mahasiddha Kukuripa, Thangtong Gyalpo was known for his eccentric demeanor and miraculous experiences. He was given the name Thangtong Gyalpo, or ”King of the Empty Plain,” by five dakinis in a pure vision.
Thangtong Gyalpo was a great siddha, poet, tertön, as well as an architect. In his spiritual life, he was connected with the Northern Treasure Text tradition and the Sixth Karmapa, however, he had connections with all schools of Tibetan Buddhism.
He constructed numerous shrines and temples throughout India, Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan. As an engineer, he was best known for his iron chain suspension bridges. Some of these suspension bridges exist to this day. Due to his engineering knowledge, Thangtong Gyalpo’s lineage of treasure texts are known as the Chagsam, or Iron Bridge lineage, which still survives in the Nyingma School.
