India history and geography
Tibetan sources give the name of the birthplace of Garab Dorje as O-rgyan or U-rgyan or Uddiyana which is located in North-western India. Historians have identified it to be Swat valley. It may be noted that Nagarjuna Vajrapani or Padmasambhava and Garab Dorje were born in the same country.

The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
