|
Famed Indian Mahāsiddha whose influence was felt in the Tibetan tradition via his student Marpa Chökyi Lodrö, and others. In terms of the Uttaratantra he is reported to have had visionary interactions with the Bodhisattva Maitreya that led him to discover instructions related to the treatise. These instructions feature a unique Mahāmudra approach to the Uttaratantra, which would form the basis for a meditative tradition of exegesis on this work that became widespread among followers of the Kagyu school.
