• Several Indian teachers were on their way home from China, when they were detained by the Tangut Emperor (in the year 1037). One of these monks was Shi Budong, which in Sanskrit is Akṣobhyavajra (in Chinese, Budong Jingang). He translated Yoga Tantras in Tangut land. He had a disciple named Lebu. See Ksenia B. Kepping's article "Portraits of Tibetan and Indian Teachers in a Tangut Engraving," in which she believes she can identify portraits of both Akṣobhyavajra and his disciple Lebu.
