Nanam Dorje Dudjom (T. sna nam rdo rje bdud 'joms སྣ་ནམ་རྡོ་རྗེ་བདུད་འཇོམས་) (8th-9th cent.). One of the twenty-five disciples of Padmasambhava. He was a minister of King Trisong Detsen who sent to Nepal to invite Padmasambhava to Tibet.
When receiving empowerment from Padmasambhava, his flower fell on the mandala of Vajrakilaya. Through the practice he became an accomplished mantrika, who could fly with the speed of the wind and pass through solid rock.
The name Dorje Dudjom means ‘Indestructible Subduer of Mara.’
