Phekmalung

In ancient times, a 106-year-old sage named Teingpa, known for healing villagers through Tantric knowledge, grew tired and sad due to his inability to walk despite his dedication to treating the sick.

In ancient times there was a mighty sage named Teingpa. He lived with his 3 daughters under the cover of a large rock. His job was to heal the afflicted or sick (Jharphuk) in the village through Tantric knowledge. Even though the 106-year-old old man could not walk, the villagers used to carry him to treat the sick. The old man, who always spends his life treating the sick in the village, became very tired and sad when he found it difficult to walk.

So that none of his children should suffer in this way, he called his three daughters before him and said, “Carry me in a blanket in Ramite Bhir and come straight without leaving me behind. If you look back at me, our Lohorung children will continue to suffer like me.” The daughters also did as Vijuwa Wabu said and took Ramite to the top of the hill and left it on that big stone and returned.

There is a legend that a daughter named Pekma disobeyed and came to the same big stone and could not see the widow Wabu but could not see her grandfather. The widow and eldest daughter Pekma is looking at her widower Wabu from this big stone, so the big stone is named Pekmalung, meaning Pekma is named after the eldest daughter, while in Lohorung language it is called Lung. It means big stone.
