TIBETAN GURU was a renowned and highly learned tantric saint of Northern India. In the middle of the eight century the Tibetan King Thi-Sron Detsan sent to India inviting the learned guru to come to Tibet. Marapa was one of Naropa's main disciples, an ordinary farmer who traveled back and forth across the Himalayas from Tibet to India, bringing back teachings on each of his journeys. He was a great Tantric teacher and a link in one of the most famous teaching lineages from Tilopa to Naropa to Marpa to Milarepa to Gampopa to Dusum Khyempa, the first Karmapa who founded the Karma Kagyu sect.
Gampopa was trained as a physician who devoted himself to the Dharma after the death of his wife. He became the heart son of Milarepa and was the root guru of the first Karmapa, Dusum Khyempa. Milarepa was a monk and a poet who lived in the twelfth century and arguable Tibet's most famous spiritual figure. His life started as a disaster, with him having destroyed others. Naropa resided at the finest Buddhist University and was one of the greatest scholars of his time. Tson-Ka-Pa was born in Tibet in the middle of the fourteenth century and it is said that the tree which overshadowed the house in which he was born had the imprint of a Buddha on its leaves. Tson-ka-pa was a Northern Buddhist reformer.
