Atīśa Dīpaṃkara Śrījñāna (Bengali: অতীশ দীপংকর শ্রীজ্ঞান ; Standard Tibetan: ཇོ་བོ་རྗེ་དཔལ་ལྡན་ཨ་ཏི་ཤ། ; ) (982 - 1054 CE) was a Buddhist Bengali religious leader and master.
 He was one of the major figures in the spread of 11th-century Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism in Asia and inspired Buddhist thought from Tibet to Sumatra.
 In 1013 CE, He traveled to the Srivijaya kingdom and stayed there for 12 years and came back to India.
 He is recognised as one of the greatest figures of classical Buddhism, and Atisa's chief disciple Dromtön was the founder of the Kadam School.
 Atisa is also considered to be a key figure in the establishment of the Sarma schools of Tibetan Buddhism.
Ratnākaraśānti
Ratnākaraśānti (also known as Śāntipa) (c. 1000 CE) was one of the eighty-four Buddhist Mahāsiddhas and the chief debate-master at the monastic university of Vikramashila.

 His texts include several influential commentaries to Buddhist tantras, as well as works of philosophy and logic.
Niguma
Niguma is considered one of the most important and influential yoginis and Vajrayana teachers of the 10th or 11th century in India.
 She was a dakini, and one of the two female founders of the Shangpa Kagyu school of Vajrayana Buddhism, along with dakini Sukhasiddhi.
 Her birth name was Shrijnana (or Palgyi Yéshé in Tibetan).
 Like many of the mahasiddhas and Tantric practitioners of the time, Niguma was known by several names both during her lifetime and afterwards.
 She was called Yogini Vimalashri, or Vajradhara Niguma, or Jñana (wisdom) Dakini Adorned with Bone (ornaments), or The Sister referring to her purported relationship to the great Buddhist teacher and adept Naropa.
 She was also sometimes called Nigupta, which is explained by the historical Buddhist scholar Taranatha as follows: "The name Nigu accords with the Indian language, which is Nigupta, and is said to mean 'truly secret' or 'truly hidden.'
 In fact, it is the code-language of the dakinis of timeless awareness." Nan Huai-Chin

 He was the most eminent disciple of the lay Chan Buddhist teacher Yuan Huanxian, and received confirmation of his enlightenment by various masters of the Buddhist traditions.
 He was considered by many to be the major force in the revival of Chinese Buddhism.
 While Nan was regarded by many in China as one of the most influential Chan Buddhist teachers, he was little known outside the Chinese cultural sphere.
 Nan died at the age of 95 on Sept. 29th, 2012 in Suzhou, China. Maha Bodhi Tahtaung
