Why did Buddhism go to Tibet?

The 37th king of Tibet, Trisong Detsen invited the great pandita Shantarakshita, also known as Khenpo Bodhisattva, to establish Buddhism in Tibet. Shantarakshita began teaching in Tibet, and laid the foundations for Samyé monastery. Shantarakshita urged the king to invite Padmasambhava to overcome obstacles in building the monastery. According to Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche, it was in the Iron Tiger year (810) that Padmasambhava came to Tibet. Samyé was then built without any hindrance, completed within five years, and consecrated by Padmasambhava and Shantarakshita. In Samyé monastery began a vast undertaking, an extraordinary wave of spiritual activity in Tibet. Vimalamitra and other great scholars and masters, one hundred and eight in all, were invited; Padmasambhava, Shantarakshita and Vimalamitra gave teachings, and then worked with Tibetan translators, such as Vairotsana, to translate the Sutras, Tantras and treatises into Tibetan. The first seven Tibetan monks were ordained into the Sarvastivadin lineage, and this was the time when the two sanghas, the monastic celibate sangha of monks and nuns and the community of lay tantric practitioners, came into being in Tibet.
