The miracle (zutul) cave (puk) (4790m) that gives the Gompa its name is at the back of the main hall, the red building to the left. Milarepa is said to have meditated in this cave, which was also another confrontation between Milarepa and Naro Bonchung. Needing shelter from the rain, they agreed to jointly construct a cave but when Milarepa casually put a roof in place, without waiting for Naro to make the walls, it was another easy victory for Buddhism, Milarepa then decided the roof was too high and went outside and pressed it down with this foot, leaving a footprint. Back inside, he realized he’d pushed it too far, but some more shoving from below adjusted things to his satisfaction. His hand and head prints can be seen on the cave ceiling but the Gompa roof covers the footprint atop the cave.
