Drukpa Kunley (1455–1529), also known as Kunga Legpai Zangpo, Drukpa Kunleg (Tibetan: འབྲུག་པ་ཀུན་ལེགས་, Wylie: brug pa kun legs), and Kunga Legpa, the Madman of the Dragon Lineage (Tibetan: འབྲུག་སྨྱོན་ཀུན་དགའ་ལེགས་པ་ 'brug smyon kun dga' legs pa), was a yogi in the Tibetan Mahamudra tradition, as well as a famous poet. He is often counted among the nyönpa ("mad ones"). His exploits are commonly recounted even to this day among Tibetan and Bhutanese people.
