Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo ~ The Essence of the the Practice

Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo (born 1943) is a bhikṣuṇī in the Drukpa
Lineage of the Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism. She is an
author, teacher and founder of the Dongyu Gatsal Ling Nunnery in
Himachal Pradesh, India. She is best known for having spent
twelve years living in a remote cave in the Himalayas, three of
those years in strict meditation retreat. On 16 February 2008,
Tenzin Palmo received the title of Jetsunma (reverend lady) in
recognition of her spiritual achievements as a nun and her
efforts in promoting the status of female practitioners in
Tibetan Buddhism by the head of the Drukpa Lineage, the 12th
Gyalwang Drukpa. In November 2023, Tenzin Palmo was named to the
BBC's 100 Women list.
