BiographicalInfo Drukpa Kunley or Kunga Lekpa (1455-1529) was an eccentric master of the 'crazy yogi' or 'divine madman' type, whose enlightened deeds and exploits, often involving women and alcohol, are commonly recounted even to this day among Tibetans and Bhutanese people. (Source)

Drukpa Kunleg is renowned as the Divine Madman of Bhutan. Drukpa Kunleg was born into the branch of the noble Gya (rgya) clan of Ralung which descended from Lhabum (lha 'bum) the second eldest brother of Tsangpa Gyare Yeshe Dorje. His father was nang so rin chen bzang po. He was the nephew of Gyalwang Kunga Paljor. Father of Ngawang Tenzin and Zhingchong Drukdra. Established Chime Lhakhang (‘chi med lha khang), near Punakha (spung thang) in 1499. (Source)
