Sakya Sect

 The Sakya school of Tibetan Buddhism traces its origins to India, particularly to the great adept Virupa, who is the first human to disseminate the most distinctive of its teachings, the practices of “Path and Result” (Lamdre). According to the traditional histories, Virupa was born in Bengal during the region of king Devapala. As a child, he entered the monastic university of Somapuri, where he was given the ordination name Dharmapala. In the monastery, he pursued the standard scholastic curriculum and tantric studies.
