Question:

Why was Pang Rikdzin Nyingpo appointed as the officiating priest of the four Further Taming temples and what made him deserving of such an appointment?

Answer (optional):

Pang Rikdzin Nyingpo was appointed as the officiating priest of the four Further Taming temples because he was the son of the mantra adept Pangje Tsentram, who had saved the life of King Trhisong Detsen by returning the thunderbolts brought down by a vowed killer. This heroic act earned the mantra adept great rewards from the king, and his son was appointed to the prestigious position of officiating priest. Additionally, Pang Rikdzin Nyingpo was a skilled practitioner and teacher of religious rites, and his descendants continued the lineage of powerful and sagacious masters.
