| | The Shamarpa lineage is a line of incarnate lamas who since the 14th century have reincarnated as teacher and disciple to the Gyalwa Karmapa, head of the Karma Kagyu lineage of Vajrayana Buddhism. | | | The present-day 14th Shamarpa Mipham Chokyi Lodro was born in 1952 in Derge, Tibet as the nephew of the16th Karmapa and was formally recognized by him at age four. | | | The Karmapa also bestowed the name, "Shamarpa," meaning, "The One With The Red Crown." As predicted by Buddha Shakyamuni, "In the future, a great bodhisattva with a ruby red crown will come to the suffering of the multitude, leading them out of their cyclic bewilderment and misery." In the Shamarpa, the Buddha's prediction was fulfilled. |

| | The Shamarpa lineage is the second line of reincarnates in history of the Tibetan tradition (the Karmapas being the first), and began when Rangjung Dorje presented Khaydrup Dragpa Senge with a ruby-red crown, and the title Shamarpa (Holder of the Red Crown). | | | In his autobiography, The Clear Crystal Mirror, Situpa states that Shamarpa is the embodiment of Amithaba, the Buddha of Limitless Light, and that it was his bond with Shamarpa that had given his life its meaning. | | | The second Shamarpa, Kacho Wangpo, had been recognised by the fourth Karmapa as the reincarnation of Khaydrup Dragpa Senge, the first Shamarpa, thus fulfilling a prediction of the second Karmapa, Karma Pakshi, that "future Karmapas will manifest in two forms". |
