The precious teachings of the Buddha consist of ''Statement and Realization''.  The Dharma of Statement is included in the Three Collections (Tripitaka), and the aspect of Realization is comprised of the Three Trainings.  At first [[Padmasambhava]] clearly foretold the lotsawas who were to translate the Dharma of Statement into the Tibetan language and allowed for these to learn the topics of knowledge.  Gradually, bringing lotsawas and panditas together, he created the chief circumstance for translating into Tibetan all of the sacred [[Dharma]] prevalent in the Noble Land. [[Guru Rinpoche]] ([[Padmasambhava]]) predicted the translators [[Vairochana]], [[Kawa Paltsek]], and [[Chokro Lui Gyaltsen]].  The training these were given was chiefly in the science of languages.  The lotsawas and panditas were placed together in pairs.
