Ayu Khandro

Ayu Khandro, formally Ayu Khandro Dorje Paldrön (1838–1953) was a teacher of Dzogchen and Tantric Buddhism in East Tibet. She was a student of both Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo and Nyala Pema Dündul.

By many, Ayu Khandro was held to be an incarnation of Vajrayogini. She spent many dozen years in dark retreat and also practiced and taught a tantric long-life practice and was an adept chödma.

She is said to have transmitted her knowledge and gave empowerments to Chogyal Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche.

She was born in 1963, and lives in the United States.
