Naropa


Naropa (1016-1100) was a tantric Buddhist master, student of Tilopa, teacher of Marpa,
and one of the 84 mahasiddhas.

He was known for his exceptional dabating skills and his comprehensive knowledge which caused hindrances for his realization for many years.
One of his main contributions to the DW methods is his collection of the yidam practice
Inner Heat, Illusiory Body, Clear Light, Dream Yoga, Bardo and Phowa – known as the “Six
Teachings of Naropa“.
