"Do you know of other strong women figures in Buddhist history and legend
aside from the Princess of the Wisdom Lake? (Yeshes Tsogyal)"

Nangsa Obum and Machig Lapdron, as mentioned in Tsultrim Allione's
book, "Women of Wisdom".  ("Machig is the Wisdom Dakini, the heart-mind
Mother of the Buddhas of the Three Times, dakini of the Varja family"
p. l50)

   --Tsultrim Allione, "Women of Wisdom", p. xv
