abstract = "One of the key feature of early Kagy{\"u}pa Buddhism in Tibet was the practise of long meditation retreats in the complete solitude of the Himalayan mountains. The author of the Tibetan text, Kyobpa Jigten Sumg{\"o}n (1143-1217), had himself spent 7 years in a cave in central Tibet. After he established the Dirkung Kagy{\"u} tradition in the late 12th century, he sent out several waves of yogis and monks to the mountains of Tsari, Lapchi, and Kailash and thus started a tradition of retreats there that would last for 800 years. The text describes in great detail the {"}dependent origination{"} of favourable and unfavourable conditions for a retreat in solitude, and how to create and avoid them. It provides a rare glimps into the world of yogic life in early Tibet.",
