| | Tilopa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Tilopa (Tibetan; Sankrit: Talika, 988 - 1069) was an Indian tantric practitioner, regarded as the human founder of the Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. |  | | When Matongha appeared, Tilopa inquired about Nagarjuna and was told that Nagarjuna was not in the human realm at that time but was giving teachings in the god realm. |  | | During this time, Matongha noticed that because Tilopa had been king and of royal caste, his mind possessed a strong pride that hindered his progress, and she told him that his arrogance must be removed. |

| | Dharma Fellowship: Kagyu Tradition |
 | | Tilopa is described as a siddha, a yogi-saint who, having attained personal enlightenment and spiritual Liberation was able to reveal his realization through an exceptional display of miraculous activity. |  | | Tilopa explained, "In order to receive instruction it is necessary first to have the appropriate empowerments." Thus, for the first symbol, he spread some cloth on the ground and, using a hot coal, let it burn. |  | | The latter united Tilopa's esoteric teachings, the Way of the Yogin, with the orthodox Kadampa3 tradition of classical monastic Buddhism, to form what has become the glorious Dagpo Kagyu Order of Tibet, existing to the present day. |

 | | Tilopa was one of the 84 mahasiddhas of ancient India and is regarded as the first human holder of the Dagpo Kagyu lineage, having received esoteric instruction directly from the primordial Buddha, Vajradharya. |  | | Tilopa, one of the greatest Tantra masters of all time, communicates what he can of this vision to his disciple Naropanot because he feels it can be communicated, but because Naropa is so earnest and loyal that he must try. |  | | Tilopa says that chanting mantras and practising paramita, or compassion, following instructions given the religious sutras and following traditional precepts and teachings will not help a seeker attain enlightenment. |

 | | Although Tilopa had several enlightened human masters, his root guru was Buddha Vajradhara who directly transmitted to Tilopa many esoteric teachings, including the practice of Mahamudra. |  | | For 12 years, Tilopa was devoted to the practice of these teachings, and he took a yogini as his secret consort. |  | | When he was still a young shepherd, he met the great Bodhisattva Nagarjuna who gave him preliminary teachings on the Mahayana path and appointed him as the ruler of a kingdom in Bhalenta. |
