His destined status as a guru was attained through his own perseverance, understanding and realization, before his recognition as a realized practitioner by certain important lamas.  His biography describes openly and in a naked light, his experience of very complex situations in a life of sorrow. it tells of his liberation from sorrow;  this evolution from living a life of social marginalisation to one bestowing light on society through wisdom. His realization of the body of light at the end of his life seals the authenticity of this master’s completion of his spiritual journey. The text also describes situations of historical and social interest, being a trustworthy mirror of XIX century Tibet.
