Padmasambhava, reverently known as Guru Rinpoche, is credited with establishing Vajrayana Buddhism in Tibet in the 8th century. He is often depicted in union with his consort, who represents the feminine principle of wisdom or skillful means. Their union symbolizes the complete attainment of enlightenment, where wisdom and compassion are perfectly integrated, guiding practitioners on the path to liberation.
