His name is "zaanjeb", because he was good at reciting the five great tuoronis when he was young, so he has this title. Later, he received the precepts of bhikkhu from Ji jiangbalinba (Master Cizhou), and learned the method of Xianmi from zongba sonan sangbu. When he was 33 years old, he built the duojitan temple to the east of Gongga in the former Tibet.
