Dusum Khyenpa (1110–1193) was the first recognised Karmapa and a significant figure in the establishment of the Karma Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism. Born in eastern Tibet, he studied with many great masters of his time, eventually founding monasteries and laying the groundwork for the unique system of reincarnated lamas (tulkus) in Tibet. His teachings and spiritual accomplishments solidified the Kagyu lineage, emphasizing direct experience and meditative insight.
