Life and Teachings of Gampopa
Life and Teachings of Gampopa (including the Four Dharmas)
By: Thrangu Rinpoche
Our Price: $18.95
Members Price: $17.06

To read spiritual biographies of the Kagyu lineage masters is a great inspiration to enter the path and also provides encouragement and enthusiasm to continue when circumstances become difficult. The spiritual biography of Gampopa, covered in the first half of this book, is a very good example of avoiding the extremes in practice and of showing how we should correctly practice.

Gampopa was the main disciple of Milarepa and one of the founders and shining jewels of the Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism from which originate the four greater and eight lesser schools.

Besides writing the Jewel Ornament of Liberation, Gampopa distilled the Buddhist path into four short lines or truths, called dharmas. These lines became known as the "Four Dharmas of Gampopa." The second half of this book translates these four lines along with a detailed commentary on each by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche.

The 12th century master Gampopa is one of the founding fathers of the Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. He was renowned for this philosophical knowledge and meditation experience. He unified two streams of transmission: the Kadampa lineage's system of mind training, based on the Mahayana sutras, and the simple and profound meditation instructions of Mahamudra.

It is through the kindness of the master, Lord Marpa, and his disciples that there could be a Dakpo Kagyu Lineage and moreover that what we call Kagyu Monlam could even happen, so we should remember their lives and examples. It was especially Gampopa who upheld this lineage by being a fine exemplar of monasticism and who turned the wheel of dharma in a vast way. He said to his students of future generations, "I ask all the people of the future who are devoted to me but they cannot meet me to please read the works I have written, such as A Precious Garland of the Supreme Path and the Ornament of Liberation. It will be no different from meeting me personally." Therefore it is imperative that from then on, those who are part of the Dakpo Kagyu should grasp these treatises and and take them as their practice. Now that the twenty-fifth Kagyu Monlam has arrived, the Gyalwang Karmapa has made the special request that this text be published in a tri-lingua Tibetan, English, and Chinese edition. We hope and wish this makes it easy to practice through listening, contemplation, and meditation.
