Later, he studied translation from Paṇḍita Pasumati in Nepal. After that, he traveled back and forth between  Tibet, Nepal, and India. He requested the śāstra and upadeśa on limitless sutras and mantras from a hundred and fifty scholars and siddhas, and fully took them to heart. In particular, he received the empowerment and instructions on the Illusory Body, the verses of the Six Doctrines [of Naropa], and the gradual path of illusion from Niguma (ni gu ma). He studied the doctrine of Mahakala wisdom from Maitripa (maitrI pa), completed the practice of approaching the yidam deity with Langri Tangpa Dorje Senge (glang ri thang pa rdo rje seng ge). Afterwards, he traveled to Shang (shang) of Yeru (gyas ru), one of the two regions of Tsang, and built one hundred and eight temples, most of them in the lower part of Shang.

The Kagyu school traces its origin to the eleventh-century translator Marpa, who studied in India with Nāropa. Marpa's student Milarepa trained Gampopa, who founded the first monastery of the Kagyu order. As many as twelve subtraditions grew out from there, the best known being the Karma Kagyu, the Drikung, and the Drukpa.
