Druṣa (द्रुष) is the name of a region close to present-day Tibet and Turkestan mentioned in H. H. Dudjom Rinpoche’s commentary on the “Ascertaining the Three Vows” (sDom-gSum rNam-Nges) by Panchen Perna Wangyal (1487-1542) of Ngari province.—Accordingly, [while commenting on chapter four—Secret Mantra]: “Then, by the force of these blessings, King Ja of Sahor had seven auspicious dreams, indicating that all the scriptures of the Tantric class would descend into this human world; and, in fact, shortly thereafter, all the scriptures of the Tantric class of mahāyoga descended upon the roof of his palace. The kriyā class descended in Varanasi, the yogatantra class descended on the peak of Akniparvata Ujjavala mountain, and the anuyoga class descended in Śrī Laṅkā in the Singali forest. These teachings then progressively spread into the countries of India, Nepal, and Druṣa”.
