From the age of 19, from the year Wood-Dog (shing khyi—1214 A.D.), till the age of twenty, he listened (to an exposition) of the three Tantras with precepts by the sa skya pan chen, and (to the exposition) of the Saṃvara Cycle according to the method of mal gyo. From chu mig pa he obtained the Nyāyasamuccaya (tshad ma bsdus pa ). When he was 22, he listened (to the exposition) of the precepts of the mahāsiddha Mitra jo gi (yogin) by khro phu lo tsa ba, and to the precepts of the "incomplete" Mahāmudrā (phyag rgya chen po kha 'thor) by the Nepālese grags pa ‘bum me.
