Here's a crazy idea.
Let's go do the mantra until our vajras levitate and we have a veritable pure vision of the deity.

Well i would say, keep then this great secret inside your Lineage as sealed and don´t proclaim /stamp that as a great truth to others.

First ChNN explains that Ati Muwer is one of the three Shang Shung Gonpo Namsum. Then he wrote this:
''When Guru Padmasambhava arrived in Tibet and started to spread the Vajrayana teaching, Ati Muwer wanted to destroy him. So he manifested as a gigantic tiger and attacked Guru Padmasambhava. But Guru Padmasambhava jumped on the tiger's back and manifested as Dorje Trolod. From then on Ati Muwer became the seat of Dorje Trolod.''
Interestingly, the translation of the short terma, in the same book, also uses 'tiger' and does not define a tigress in a particular state.
However, in the sadhana on p.99 the being is defined clearly as a 'majestic young tigress'.
So, put the two together and we have the young tigress defined as Ati Muwer.
As far as I am concerned this book is part of the donwang.
In terms of the topic, the manifestations of Guru Rinpoche, it is important to follow the visualisations given for a practice. There is no point following a Guru whose veracity you doubt and whose empowerments you find faulty.
I will end with ChNN's own words from that book:
''Whichever kind of method you received, apply that. You should not judge which is better or more correct since all are related to a particular transmission''.

i thought this teaching came from the Jangter, or Dudjom tradition, because Doc ngakpa chogyam Togden was at this time more connected with Chime Rigdzin Rinp. and the Dudjom lineage...
afaik ChNN taught Dorje Drolo the first time in 2012 - but maybe it is from an interwiew with ChNN
the title was
"rainbow of liberated energy"

If you have received that empowerment from that 'someone who comes on and makes a claim' it is a most unfortunate path to take..
Perfectly understandable.But i am interested in where stories come from and how they emerge.
No, we do know why-- he is a great historian, he must have came to the conclusion that the version of the yum story is rather late (it is), and he found a earlier source where A ti Mu Wer manifested as the tiger and found that account more credible than the later tradition. In other words, he believed the version he found to be more credible than later sources, including what is found in the 'Od gsal gsang mdzod cycle.we NONE OF US actually know why ChNN taught it. Sure, we can speculate, but we don't really know.

Re: Guru Rinpoche As...
Tashi delek,
The tigress as a subjugated entity can be "true" maybe in the lineage of Namkhai Norbu , but outside that lineage it looses credibility.
There are different visions about that story and one can make a choice which story one can follow.
All stories seem to be based on so called historical "facts", which in the Yungdrung Bön Tradition are not known, and because Bönpos know their own history at the best, other interpretations about Ati Muwer than known in Bön are seen according Bön History NOT and Never as valid.
The story about the different Termas and visions regarding Ati Muwer can be seen as a contradiction, because there is not a one and only authoritative version about that who and what is the tigress.
So i doubt greatly that a Bön Dharmakaya aspect can become a servant in the form of a tigress for riding , but that is a Yungdrung Bön vision which does not reflect to the visions done here by the adherents of Namkhai Norbu.
Ati Muwer is still inside the Refuge Tree of Bön as such and has never left Yungdrung Bön, so if there would be power in the rituals of the tigress as Ati Muwer, that is what i greatly doubt, seen in the visions of Yungdrung Bön.
So here we can split off and can remain in 3 camps:
- The ones who follow the tigress as a form of Ati Muwer
- The ones who follow the tigress as a form of one of the 5 main consorts of Guru Rinpoche
- The ones who don´t agree to the Ati Muwer subjugated form as tigress.
All are "right" i guess so, based on their rights to believe in something.
Here one can see how difficult Tibetan History can be and especially Bön History, which is at best known of course by Bönpos and not so by others/outsiders who do their best too.
P.s;
Will publish the so called "historical facts", that the tigress here mentioned is a subjugated form of Bön Ati Muwer, seen as correct by Namkhai Norbu
inside the world of Bön, guess they are not well informed about this "secret teaching".
It will not contribute to bi lateral respect that is sure. Guess it would be better to have kept this Ati Muwer story, as secret inside information.
If i understood it well that was also the special wish of Namkhai Norbu.

Re: Guru Rinpoche As...
kalden yungdrung,
I think, if you're so interested in historical facts, then you should definitely be sure to apply those standards equally to that of Bon. But maybe you are not too interested in doing this, because you'll find that much of the narrative that arose with later Bon, will start to fall apart. That is the problem with Bon.
Anyways, speaking of historical facts:
From Chogyal Namkhai Norbu's "The Light of Kailash", Volume 1, chapter V, "The Civilization of Ancient Zhang Zhung", section 7.7., "Pra divination", on page 212, he writes:
"In the ancient Bon tradition of Zhang Zhung, divination through ecstatic possession was performed by invoking the descent in the diviners of Phywa deities, such as Phu-wer, or other powerful deities, such as the Three Protectors of Zhang Zhung, A-ti Mu-wer, Ku-byi Mang-ke, and Ge-khod. As the sBa bzhed Annals specify, this oracular form gradually extended into Tibet, since (SI, I I 6,7): "Horrible deities and Klu really descended into the people."
That is how divination was performed at the time of the Teacher Padma. The existence in modern Tibet of the gNas-chung medium [sku rten] - who prophesies following ecstatic possession by the Dharma Protector rDo-rje Grags-ldan - shows that oracular divination has been uninterruptedly practiced from antiquity until now; this fact can be ascertained by consulting the numerous accounts on the subject."
From John Vincent Bellezza's "The Dawn of Tibet: The Ancient Civilization on the Roof of the World", page 227, we can read the following:
"Ati Muwer is another principal god of the Gekhö circle. His Zhang Zhung-language name can probably be translated as "Grandfather Sky King." He is clad in golden armor and brandishes a bow and arrow made of celestial iron. Ati Muwer is depicted riding on the light rays of the red planet Mars, a classic Eurasian war god."
Also from Bellezza: "They appear to have been powerful territorial guardians of the Zhang Zhung kingdom recreated in later times as tantric gods."
No mention of Ati Muwer being a Dharmakaya here. What's more, is that his characteristics is that of a war god, more specifically a protector. He has armor and a weapon.
But note (and this is important) that Ati Muwer along with other deities took possession of oracles for divinatory purposes.
The idea that a Dharmakaya takes possession of anything is complete nonsense and is refuted in all of Buddhadharma. Only worldly gods and deities takes possession of oracles. Yet through historical research we can see that Ati Muwer is recorded as being one of a number of deities that did just that. Meaning that the idea of Ati Muwer as a Dharmakaya, is much more likely an idea that arose with later Bon.
So perhaps one can speculate, that the older Ati Muwer, how Ati Muwer was described in Zhang Zhung Bon, was the Ati Muwer that Guru Padmasambhava met, subjugated, and bound under oath, as Dorje Drollo.
Naturally this as fate for ones protector god is not very flattering, and perhaps then Ati Muwer over time became elevated (through a change of narrative) to that of a Dharmakaya instead of a failed protector god. And so Guru Padmasambhava as Dorje Drollo subjugating Ati Muwer who manifested as the tiger would then be one of the earlier accounts of this part of Guru Padmasambhava's life. That at least corresponds with historical facts.
