His name derives from the chief deity of the mandala into which he was first initiated. At some point he took an outcaste girl as consort and practiced for six months the [[four aspects of approach and accomplishment]]. Through that practice he had a vision of the entire mandala of [[Vajra Heruka]] and reached the attainment of the [[supreme accomplishment of mahamudra]]. He wrote the ''[[Golden Garland of Rulu]]'', the ''[[Vishuddha Accomplishment]]'' as well as other treatises and benefited beings with tremendous activity. Finally, he departed to the realm of Buddha Akshobhya in his very body.
