Biographical Information

Vagishvarakirti was one of the six gate keeper panditas of the university of Vikramashila. He was the guardian of the southern gate when Shantipa was guarding the eastern gate and Prajñakaramati the northern gate, at the time Drokmi Lotsawa and Taklo Shyönnu Lodrö were sent there.
