Drukpa Kunley, one of Bhutan’s most celebrated spiritual figures, transformed the path of religious practice through his unconventional approach to enlightenment. Often regarded as a “divine madman,” he described himself as an “aimless wandering yogi,” yet his actions carried deep wisdom and purpose. A bold non-conformist, he challenged religious hypocrisy, warning that it eroded the essence of Buddha dharma. Though not originally from Bhutan, his influence remains deeply rooted in Bhutanese culture, symbolised by the widespread presence of phallic imagery across the country.
In this book, Needrup Zangpo brings together thirty-three engaging tales of Drukpa Kunley, drawn from both biographical records and oral traditions—some shared in print for the very first time.
Accompanied by beautifully illustrated visuals, Drukpa Kunley: Sacred Tales of a Mad Monk offers a captivating introduction to one of Bhutan’s most iconic spiritual personalities.
