The correct answer is option 4, Padmasambhava. Padmasambhava, also known as Guru Rinpoche, was a Buddhist monk who played a significant role in spreading Buddhism in Tibet during the 8th century. He was invited to Tibet by the Tibetan King Trisong Detsen to help establish Buddhism in the region. Padmasambhava was instrumental in introducing Buddhist teachings and rituals to the people of Tibet and played a key role in the conversion of the Tibetan King and his court to Buddhism. He is revered as a highly accomplished master and is considered one of the most important figures in Tibetan Buddhism.
