Tertön Choggyur Lingpa's Footprint in Rock

This is the footprint of the feet (zhabs rjes) left by the great Tertön (gter ston) or Treasure Finder although the left feet is not so clear it is quite impressive.

Choggyur Lingpa or Cho (o rgyan mchog gyur gling pa) aka Choggyur Dechen Lingpa (mchog gyur bde chen gling pa, 1829-1870) was a tertön or treasure revealer and contemporary of Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo and Jamgön Kongtrul. Regarded as one of the major tertöns in Tibetan history, his termas are widely practiced by both the Kagyü and Nyingma schools. Choggyur Lingpa means 'Sanctuary of Eminence.'

Chokgyur Lingpa was the "manifestation," meaning the reincarnation, of King Trisong Deutsen's son, Prince Damdzin. Another of his former lives was the great tertön, Sangye Lingpa, who revealed the Lama Gongdü. Choggyur Lingpa was the last of the 100 major tertöns. He was the owner of seven transmissions and is regarded as the universal monarch of all tertöns. One of the reasons for this is that no other tertön has revealed a teaching that includes the Space Section or Longde of Dzogchen (rdzogs chen klong sde). There are several Mind Section or Semde (rdzogs chen sems sde) revelations and all major tertöns have revealed the Instruction Section or Mengagde (man ngags sde),

Perhaps miracles can help create faith in ordinary people. So from great compassion these things can happen. Also, If you have faith and venerate physical objects that you believe are blessed by a holy person, even if they weren't, - perhaps you will make a connection and get the blessing, like in the dog's tooth story. Interesting how the mind works.

Yes in Dharma we can have fake miracles and real miracles.
The tooth of a dog would be an illusion whereas the footprint would be real and not made with a hammer and chisel.
We can watch also some handprints in walls sometimes.

How can yogi perform such deeds ? Sure if we cannot answer this its a miracle......

Isnt it though?

Suzuki-roshi used to make a distinction between mind and MInd? Perhaps, when you turn to MInd, mind falls away? I really dont know but am trying to find a way to communicate what actually occurs.

Btw, i have heard with my own ears, Chnn say that suzuki-roshi was a vajrayana teacher. Kind of puts all the intellectual categorizations in a tizzy, doesnt it?
