		Padmasambhava is the Tantric Buddha — the second Buddha, who brought the teachings of the Nine Yanas of Buddhism to Tibet and the entire trans-Himalayan area.
		He subdued all the negative forces which had caused obstacles to the establishment of the teachings and founded the two sanghas: the red sangha of monks and nuns, and the gö-kar chang-lo’i dé (gos dKar lCang lo'i sDe), the white sangha or ngak'phang sangha of ngakpas and ngakmas, naljorpas and naljormas.
		Padmasambhava then collected the entire body of Vajrayana from the Mahasiddhas and completed it within himself.
