Karma Lhedup of Ura Gewog (county), located in Bumthang district, shares an account of three sacred thongdrels (scrolls) of Padtsheling. He also speaks briefly of the Padtsheling temple. Supposedly the thongdrels were brought by Dupthob Tempai Gyeltshen from Tibet as a reward for him subduing a cannibal in Tibet. The thongdrel is said to be painted by a Tibetan master called Baru Tsana. When Dupthob brought the thongdrels, the great masters of Tibet told him that the scrolls are destined to reside in a place that is located at the base of a mountain that resembles the longevity of wealth and from where one can see the stars. Dupthob recognized the place but he could not decide on its name. A bird came by saying "Padtsheling", therefore it is said that the place and the temple were named by a bird. Once a year the sacred thongdrels are put up on display for blessings in the Padtsheling temple.
