Except for the biographies of [[Rechungpa]], there seems to be not much information on him anywhere else. However, he definitely was a historical figure and is mentioned in the colophons of at least three texts included in the [[bka' 'gyur]], that he helped translate into Tibetan. There are a further twenty-six works included in the [[bstan 'gyur]] which mention his name. He was particularly proficient in the tantras and associated practices of [[Vajrapani]] which he passed on to Rechungpa.
