  • Karl Tõnisson, also known as Karlis Tennisons, Karlis Tennison, Brother Vahindra, Barefooted Tõnisson, The Baltic Mahatma and Dharmaduta was born 20 August 1873 in Odratsi farm, Umbusi village near Põltsamaa in Estonia. Estonian buddhism has been directly linked Buryatia and its buddhists traditions. Tõnisson taught of the Dharma in Estonia,Latvia and Lithuania. Tõnisson was in connection both with Dorzijev and Baron Roman Ungern von Strenberg so there were already two religious heroes whose origins are in Estonia. All these persons shared the same idea of pan-mongolism that they tried to popularise and put into life. In Estonia Karl Tõnisson gave lectures, published books and held lamamistic services in Kloostri Street, Tartu. In Riga he had a small temple-like building in one rented department, where he once a week held a buddhist service. Most of the audience were local thesophists. Agvan Dorzijev, Ja Lama, Ungern von Sternberg and Karl Tõnisson were sharing the same ideas and they tried to put them into life. Tõnisson came to Estonia to hide from Bolsheviks, and later moved to Asia where he spent the rest of his life. Agvan Dorzijev, Ja lama and Roman Ungern von Sternberg were executed by commissars and were trampled in the works of soviet historians.
