Tropu Lotsāwa Jampai Pal
ཁྲོ་ཕུ་ལོ་ཙཱ་བ་བྱམས་པའི་དཔལ་
1172 – 1236
Among Tibetans of his day, Tropu Lotsāwa was most famous for building an eighty-cubit-high image of the future Buddha Maitreya, consecrated by Śākyaśrī in 1212. He was one of the significant figures in the early Tropu Kagyu, responsible for bringing the very important Indian Buddhist teachers Mitrayogin, Buddhaśrī, and Śākyaśrī to Tibet. Many of his translations, but only a few of his writings, are available today.
