	Phurbu
		Phurpa refers to a Tibetan Dagger Cult, the rituals of which have been preserved, taught and practiced by a selected number of monks within the Nyingma and Chöd traditions.
		In the latter school, a type of dagger is used with a handle that consists of a dorje mounted on a face mounted on a skull; it is known as rgyal-rigs mcod-phur.
		The most extensive information on the subject, albeit not always as complete or convincing as one would wish for, is to be found in a book by Marcotty; with bits and pieces appearing elsewhere in the literature on Tibetan schools and practices.
