  • Druk is the "Thunder Dragon" of Bhutanese mythology and a national symbol of Bhutan. A Druk appears on the Bhutanese flag, holding four jewels to represent wealth and the security and protection of its people. The ancient founder of the Drukpa lineage once witnessed the Namgyiphu valley glowing with rainbow and light. Considering this an auspicious sign, he entered the valley to choose a site for the construction of a monastery, whereupon he heard three peals of thunder the sound produced by the Druk. In their own language, Bhutan is called Druk Yul, or Land of Druk, and Bhutanese leaders are called Druk Gyalpo, the Dragon Kings.
