in Thibetan mythology, is the mighty arranger of chaos. Not born of men, but created by the supreme god, he adopted as an ape the name Prasrinpo, took the goddess Kadroma as female ape, by the name of Prasrinmo, and populated Thibet, from whence the whole earth became inhabited. We find him in a second incarnation, under the name of Guia-thritz-thengo, in Thibet, where he was teacher of the people, lawgiver, and king. He taught them agriculture, civilized them, and left the kingdom, which he had reigned over for ninety-one years, to his sons, of whom there were twenty- two, who together ruled one thousand one hundred and two years.
