Description

|
|
|
Marpa the Translator, the 11th-century scholar and teacher, is one of the most renowned masters in Tibetan Buddhist history, best known through his closest disciple Milarepa. This book documents the intriguing life of Marpa who, unlike many other Tibetan masters, raised a family while training his disciples. As a youth he was inspired to travel to India to study Buddhism, ultimately making three journeys there in his life. He endured many hardships, yet succeeded in mastering tantric teachings, translating them and taking them home to Tibet, where he established the ongoing Kagyu Lineage.
