Lhodrak Kharchu,one of the solitary places of Guru Rinpoche

Lhodrak kharchu (Awakened Mind),one of the solitary places of Guru Rinpoche Yangdak Heruka, the wrathful form of Akshobhya-Vajrasattva, has the unique capacity to bring one to the profound stage of realization known as mahamudra vidyadhara. Guru Rinpoche received the transmission of Yangdak Heruka originally from the great mahasiddha Humkara. Through applying these teachings, the Mahaguru then attained the complete fruition of this practice at the Asura and Yangleshö Caves in Nepal. Once the Mahaguru had accomplished this profound deity, he brought the associated teachings to Tibet, and chose the Lhodrak Karchu caves as a sacred site to be established and associated with Yangdak Heruka. Here, by practicing Yangdak Heruka one-pointedly, the Mahaguru not only introduced this powerful practice tradition, but also blessed the site as being identical to his awakened mind. During the Kagyé empowerments at Samyé Chimpu, Guru Rinpoché entrusted these teachings to Namkhé Nyingpo, whom he instructed to practice at Lhodrak Karchu, so that he too could reap the fruits of Yangdak Heruka. And his teacher Humkara traveled later to Tibet, where he served as spiritual adviser to King Mutik Tsenpo. CHAKPURCHEN CAVE: Guru Rinpoche is said to have tunneled through the mountain, creating a winding cavern, called Chakpurchen Cave (Great Iron Dagger Cave) where he stayed in dark retreat for seven years. An impression in the cave wall shows where Guru Rinpoche stabbed an iron dagger, hence the name. To the left of Chakpurchen are the caves of Namkhai Nyingpo where he attained liberation. KHARCHU MONASTERY: Kharchu monastery overlooks the forested gorge of Chakpurchen cave. The monastery has housed many great practitioners including Namkhe Nyingpo, Vairocana, Yeshe Tsogyal, Shelkar Dorje Tsodrön, Gotsangpa, Nyangral Nyima Özer, Guru Chöwang, Melong Dorje and Drukchen Pema Karpo, the last two of whom established the temple and monastic housing of Kharchu Monastery.
