Shelkar Dorje Tso
Shelkar Dorje Tso (Tib. Template:BigTibetan, Wyl. shel dkar rdo rje mtsho), aka Shiwa Dorje Tso (Tib. Template:BigTibetan, Wyl. zhi ba rdo rje mtsho), was one of Guru Rinpoche's consorts. According to Tulku Thondup, she crossed the Tsangpo river standing on a Template:Wiki walking stick.[1] She is counted among the previous incarnations of Sera Khandro and Khandro Tsering Chödrön.
In Pema Lingpa's Lama Jewel Ocean (Wyl. bla ma nor bu rgya mtsho) [2] collection there is an account of Namkhé Nyingpo meeting Dorje Tso as a result of a Template:Wiki, taking her from her homeland in Shang Tanak, introducing her to the practice of Yangdak Heruka and offering her to Guru Rinpoche as a consort before she eventually attains realization through the practice of Yangdak and is able to fly through the sky.
