===Short biography of Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal ===
 
Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal [1594-1651], Was the reincarnation of the 4th Drukchen [[Pema Karpo]] ('brug chen pad ma dkar po). Like all previous Drukchen incarnations, he was born into the royal Gya (rgya) family descended from [[Tsangpa Gyare Yeshe Dorje]]. His father was Mipham Tenpai Nyima (yab chen mi pham bstan pa'i nyi ma) [1567-1619] and his mother Sonam Pelkyi Butri (bsod nams dpal gyi bu khrid), daughter of the ruler of skyid shod. 
 
He was enthroned as the 18th Abbot of [[Ralung]] (rwa lung), the first 'brug pa monastery to be established in Tibet. Following the prophecy of pad ma dkar po, zhabs drung ngag dbang rnam rgyal left for western Bhutan, where the 'brug pa bka' brgyud school had already been established, and founded the Cheri Monastery in 1619 in Thimphu valley. In 1629, he founded his first fortress, Dzong Simtokha, near Thimphu. As the temporal and spiritual ruler of Bhutan, zhabs drung ngag dbang rnam rgya unified Bhutan for the first time in its history.
