History: Burna was another disciple at the Tibetan temple
Kaliman studied at, who felt so humiliated
at being passed over in favour of that worthy, that he sold his soul to evil
spirits in return for vast powers.  He planned to murder the Dalai Lama in
order to achieve ultimate power, but Kaliman thwarted him.  Somehow he ended
up transformed into a vulture, and was killed by a hunter. 

Comments:There is an in-depth website devoted to Kaliman (in
Spanish) at www.kaliman.net
