Short biography
Dorje Dudjom of Nanam (sna nam pa rdo rje bdud 'joms). One of King Trisong Deutsen's ministers, sent to Nepal to invite Padmasambhava to Tibet. He became one of Guru Rinpoche's main twenty-five disciples. When receiving empowerment from Guru Rinpoche, his flower fell on the mandala of Vajrakilaya. A mantrika who had reached perfection in the two stages of development and completion, he could fly with the speed of the wind and traverse solid matter.
Rigdzin Godem (1337-1408) and Pema Trinley (1641-1718), the great vidyadhara of Dorje Drak Monastery in central Tibet, are both considered reincarnations of Dorje Dudjom. Dorje Dudjom means 'Indestructible Subduer of Mara.'
