English description: This is the life story of a saint who is deemed to be the reincarnation of the most famous Tibetan hermit, rJe btsun Mi la ras pa. Due to his more than three-decades long abode in La phyi, one of the most significant places for spiritual practice, his personal background not only reflects the exemplary path to liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth, it also simultaneously throws light on a multitude of teaching systems of different traditions as well as important places in the Tibetan Buddhist context. A supplication prayer to Mi la ras pa, which was believed to be lost for some time, completes the hagiography. German description: Die Lebensgeschichte eines Heiligen, der als Wiederverkorperung des bekanntesten tibetischen Eremiten rJe btsun Mi la ras pa gilt. Durch seinen mehr als drei Jahrzehnte langen Aufenthalt in La phyi, einem der bedeutendsten Orte fur spirituelle Praxis, spiegelt sein Werdegang nicht nur den beispielhaften Weg zur Befreiung aus dem Kreislauf von Tod und Wiedergeburt, sondern wirft gleichzeitig Licht auf eine Vielzahl von Lehrsystemen unterschiedlicher Traditionen sowie wichtiger Orte im tibetisch-buddhistischen Kontext. Ein zwischenzeitlich verloren geglaubtes Bittgebet an Mi la ras pa erganzt die Hagiographie.
