According to legend, [[Guru Rinpoche]], a 9th-century Buddhist saint had foretold the event that a Phuntsog from the east would be the next chogyal of Sikkim. In 1642, three lamas, from the north, west, and south went in search for the chosen person. Near present-day [[Gangtok]], they found a man churning milk. He offered them some refreshments and gave them shelter. So impressed were they by his deeds that they realised that he was a chosen one and immediately crowned him king. The crowning took place Norbughang near [[Yuksom]] on a stone slab in a pine covered hill, and he was anointed by sprinkling water from a sacred urn. | According to legend, [[Guru Rinpoche]], a 9th-century Buddhist saint had foretold the event that a Phuntsog from the east would be the next chogyal of Sikkim.
