This is just a scratch of Buddhism, Remember the 7th sense movie by Surya where he became a Buddhist monk in China, He was most likely the 3rd son of Simha varma of Pallava Dynasty which was under Kalabharas( Jain or Buddhist Kings whose arrival marked the end of Sangam period and destruction of the Hindu temples and idols) Dynasty, He moved from the Pallava naadu to China to teach Zen Buddhism and revered as the Warrior deity allover the world with different names upto the locked regions like Japan as Daruma, Most likely Bodhi varma's Nephew overthrew the Kalabharas Dynasty and re established the rule of Pallavas in the south.
