Phil's All Embracing Bhutan Slide Show Scenes from Tang Rimochen Yeshe Tsogyal was the consort of Padmasambhava and did some very intense meditation in caves all around Tibet and Bhutan, going through excruciatingly painful experiences on her way to a profound Enlightenment. Tang Rimochen was one of the caves where they meditated. After a two hour bumpy ride, we arrived at the Tang Rimochen temple. Yeshe Togyal and Padmasambhava, however, arrived here on a flying tiger.
