The Karmapa is the head of the Karma Kagyu school, one of the four main schools of Tibetan Buddhism. Historically recognized as the first consciously reincarnated lama (tulku), the Karmapa embodies the active compassion of all the Buddhas. Through successive incarnations, the Karmapas have preserved and transmitted the profound teachings of Mahamudra to countless disciples worldwide.
