bio Chag Lotsāwa Chöje Pal (Chag lo tsA ba chos rje dpal, 1197–1264; also known as Dharmasvāmin; BDRC P1025) was a Tibetan translator associated with the Kadam and Sakya traditions. He studied with the Kashmiri scholar Śākyaśrībhadra, with Chag Lotsāwa Drachom (Chag lo tsA ba dgra bcom), and with the Nepalese master Ravīndra, among others. He traveled to Nepal in 1218, where he stayed for a year, and returned there in 1222. From Nepal he went on to India in 1223, where he spent two years. His students included Chöpal Darbyang (Chos dpal dar byang), who wrote his biography, a rare firsthand account of Buddhist India in the thirteenth century. He was associated with the monastery of Teura (Rte'u ra dgon).
