Mitra "Dharma Tutor" and Khenpo have been used by members of the Tibetan tradition to refer to Karl Brunnholzl because of his vast knowledge and experience with the Kagyu and Nyingma traditions, practices, and texts. +

See [[Kano, K.]], ''[[Buddha-Nature and Emptiness]]'', pp. 320-324 for an overview of the various figures known as blo gros mtshungs med. Note that the BDRC person page likely conflates two of these figures, i.e. gsang phu ba and gnyal ba. +
May be confused with bde chen 'bar ba'i rdo rje who is either a mistake and not a person, or someone else. +
This figure, despite his name, does not seem to have actually been a gter ston, or is not credited with revealing any known gter ma. Nevertheless, he is referred to as gter ston dri med in the table of contents of Volume 34, in which the two works he penned are included in the Terdzö. And while he signs these works simply as Dri med 'od zer, since this is a common epithet of Klong chen pa, I have chosen to catalog him as gter ston dri med 'od zer in order to demarcate these two individuals. +
K
The name in Other Classical Names is from BDRC's "Personal Name" +

The dating of Mchims 'Jam-pa'i-dbyangs and his identification with Mchims Nam-mkha'-grags-pa are still in question.

There seems to be some confusion with this person and Zhang rin chen ye shes. In terms of the authorship of this work rgyud bla ma'i 'grel pa, BDRC attributes it to Zhang rin chen ye shes, while Tsering Wangchuk in ''The Uttaratantra in the Land of Snows'' repeatedly associates this work with rta nag rin chen ye shes, though this assessment seems to be based, at least partially, on the research of Cyrus Stearns found in ''The Buddha from Dölpo.'' +
S
In some of the recensions of the ''Ratnagotravibhāga'', such as in the Derge Tengyur, as well as in Dölpopa's commentary we find Sajjana's name rendered into Sanskrit as Sadjñāna. +
Once the Sakya Trizin finishes his reign his name turns into Sakya Trichen. +
BDRC catalogs him as the 13th Shamarpa. +
This name is an epithet, or perhaps even a nickname, rather than a given name. It relates to the story of how he and a group of children accidentally unearthed a treasure casket and he was the only one of the children to survive the incident. The actual name of this Terton is unknown, so he is simply referred to as skal ldan byis pa, "the fortunate child", or las can gyi byis pa, "the karmically destined child". +
