Ngawang Norbu Gomchen Gampala (1901-84) the great meditator was an emanation of the renowned fifteenth century Tibetan Lama, Thangtong Gyälpo—mahasiddha, healer, scholar, poet and scientist—who invented a method of forging steel and developed chain-link bridges in Tibet. Gomchen-la lived in a cave high in the mountains of Solu Khumbu, Nepal.
