Asanga was a great Indian Buddhist Yogi and scholar of the fifth century, author of Compendium of Abhidharma, who had a very close connection to Buddha Maitreya.
Due to his great compassion, he was famously able to purify all his karmic obstructions so that he could see Spiritual Guide, Buddha Maitreya, directly. See the book Joyful Path of Good Fortune for the full story.
