'''Balpo Asu'''
 
----
 
The Nepalese Asu, a contemporary of [[Phadampa Sangye]]; according to [[Go Lotsawa]] he was the grandson of an Indian scholar and a student of the Indian master Vajrapani and became particularly proficient in the [[Mahamudra]] system, especially in the various Doha cycles like those of [[Saraha]]. He apparently was en route to China, on a pilgrimage, when he settled in Tibet, north of [[Lhasa]], and got married there. He is credited with having translated some of Saraha's Doha cycles into Tibetan and with having composed and subsequently translated various commentaries on these. One of his most famous students in Tibet was [[Rechungpa]], the foremost heartson of [[Milarepa]]. Asu was the founder of the [[smad 'gyur]] tradition of Mahamudra in Tibet.
