-Also:
-[[Drak Yerpa]] ([[brag yer pa]]) - This is the holy place of [[Guru Padmasambhava]] related to the speech aspect. It is also said to be the "life tree" ([[srog shing]]), or spiritual axis, of [[Lhasa]]. There are over eighty caves where many great beings from all lineages meditated. On the top are the cave of [[Guru Padmasambhava]], the [[Rock that is Hard to Reach]] ([[brag gi yang bgrod dka']]), and [[Yeshe Tsogyal]]'s [[Secret Cave]] ([[gsang phug]]). Below is the [[Moon Cave]] ([[zla ba phug]]), another cave of [[Guru Padmasambhava]]; the [[Dharma King's Cave]] ([[chos rgyal phug]]), [[King Songtsen Gampo]]'s cave; the great cave where the [[eighty siddhas of Yerpa]] (i.e., [[Guru Padmasambhava]]'s disciples) meditated together; and Lord [[Atisha]]'s cave, the [[Cave of Auspicious Coincidence]] ([[rten 'brel phug]]), thus named because when [[Atisha]] entered it, a rain of flowers fell. See Gegyepa Tendzin Dorje (1988) and [[Keith Dowman]] (1988, hereafter abbreviated as PP). In some enumerations, instead of [[Drak Yangdzong]] (see [[chap.10, pg. 272, note 59]], in [[The Life of Shabkar]]), [[Drak Yerpa]] is given as the holy place related to the body aspect of [[Guru Rinpoche]].
