One of the primary translators of the [[Sarma]] Schools, and main teacher of [[Konchog Gyalpo]], the founder of the [[Sakya]] lineage. Drogmi was also one of the first teachers of the [[Kagyu]] patriarch [[Marpa Lotsawa]] and, like him, studied with many Indian masters. In particular, Drogmi studied with [[Naropa]] and [[Gayadhara]]. From the latter, he received transmissions from the lineage of the great Indian mahasiddha [[Virupa]] - the [[Lamdrey]] teachings - which are associated with the [[Hevajra Tantra]]. He then returned to Tibet and taught these teachings, which became the central instructions of the Sakya School.
