He visited Tibet at the invitation of the Buddhist king Khring Saung Lade Batsan and initiated a Lama community and introduced some with Buddhist practises with the help of Padmasambhara. This is why the Tibetans called him &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Ach&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;arya Bodhisattva&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. He was the principal of the newly established Basm Ya Vihara in the capital of Lasa and preached Buddhism there till his death.
