The founder of the Kagyu lineage, Tilopa (988–1069), was an Indian Mahasiddha renowned for his profound tantric practices and the "Six Words of Advice." Translator Marpa Lotsawa (1012–1097), a student of Naropa (Tilopa’s disciple), introduced Vajrayana teachings to Tibet, where they became the foundation of the Kagyu lineage. The principal follower of Marpa, Milarepa (1052–1135), is well-known for his teachings and spiritual songs as well as his metamorphosis from a black sorcerer to an enlightened yogi. The Kagyu monastic tradition was established by Gampopa (1079–1153), a follower of Milarepa, who combined Kadampa monastic discipline with the tantric teachings of Milarepa. Notable works such as "The Jewel Ornament of Liberation" were written by Gampopa, who also trained a number of notable students, one of whom being the first Karmapa. Together, these four individuals made a major contribution to the development and spread of Tibetan Buddhism by laying the groundwork for the Kagyu lineage.
