# In Rewalsar, known as Tso Pema in Tibetan, he secretly taught tantric teachings  to princess Mandarava, the local king's daughter. The king found out and tried to burn him, but it is believed that when the smoke cleared he was found to be  just sitting  there, still alive and in meditation.

#Thus the king was greatly astonished by this miracle, the king offered Padmasambhava both his kingdom and Mandarava.

# Padmasambhava then  left with Mandarava, and took to Maratika Cave  in Nepal to practice secret tantric consort rituals.

# They had a vision of buddha Amitayus  and achieved what is called the Rainbow body of the great transference  in the Vajrayana tradition, a very rare type of spiritual realization.

# Practitioners of Padmasambhava's terma  still achieve this type of realization today.

# Both Padmasambhava and Mandarava are still believed to be alive and active in this Rainbow Body form by their followers. She and Padmasambhava's other main consort, Yeshe Tsogyal who was responsible for hiding his numerous terma later in Tibet became fully enlightened.

#Many thanka  paintings show Padmasambhava in between them.
