In february of 1986 I went with my family from Dhramashala, India about 5 hours by bus to Mendi and then to Rewalsar, India (called Tsopema) by the Tibetans after Padmasambhava (pema being a Padmasambhava endearment).
Many Tibetan Lamas had seen my Dharma connection to Rewalsar and to Padmasambhava, so it was very important to them that I go to Rewalsar to visit where Padmasambhava and Mandarava had been during the time when Padmasambhava took Buddhism and helped install it into Tibet which eventually formed Tibetan Buddhism.
So, when I got to Rewalsar monks were doing a Dorje Drollo Puja deep into the night with chanting almost all night long which invokes Padmasambhava into the Lamasary and Gompa (Tibetan Buddhist Temple) where my family and I were staying then. We walked up to where Padmasambhava had flown and had melted his feet into the rock there. Monks had built a little house around this place so no one could steal the footprints and chip them out and take them away from Rewalsar (which is common regarding actual spiritual places in India, Nepal and Tibet) for the same reason that people kill elephants for their ivory tusks for money. So, when a monk led me into the house with the footprints in the big rock they were exactly the same size as my Vasques Cascade Climbing boots that I was wearing that day. So, I lifted my right boot and put it into the right melted footprint in the rock and my boot fit perfectly. But remember that was a size 14 Boot and I now wear a size 15 boot all these years later. So, Padmasambhava must have been a tall man like myself maybe 6 foot 5 inches tall. IT is said he also had a pink complexion like someone from northern Europe or England or Scandanavia. When I walked outside the sky had turned purple and violet lightning came out of the clouds telling me that Padmasambhava was also Saint Germain. I also realized since Padmasambhava was Saint Germain that likely then he was Merlin too and possibly Padmasambhava was a young Merlin in Training before he put King Arthur on the throne in England.
Saint Germain is Lord of the Violet or Purple Ray and the God of Freedom for those who know about this around the world. So, Padmasambhava who was a Mahasiddha from Nalanda Buddhist University (which I have also visited) (the ruins). But, in the end Padmasambhava and Yeshe Sogyal are both beings that installed Buddhism from India into Tibet and Padmasambhava and Yeshe Sogyal were good friends as well. They brought Buddhism to King Trisongdetsun in Tibet.
