English: The story goes back to the 15th century. Lama Kunley, a 15th-century master, shot an arrow from Tibet to choose a site to expound his teachings. The arrow landed above Chime Lhakhang (where the temple of fertility stands today). When he came in search of it, he found it at the altar room of a girl named Pelsang Buti. Pleased with her devotion, he spent the night with her, blessing her with his offspring. To this day, the main items of worship at the fertility shrine are his bow and arrow (archery is a way of life in Bhutan) and a divine 10-inch relic shaped like a phallus with a silver handle, brought from Tibet. Newly married and childless couples from far and wide hike to Chime Lhakhang—the Temple of Fertility—to get blessed by this ‘divine thunderbolt’. If their prayers are answered, they return to Punakha in gratitude.
