A Brief History of the Glorious Drukpa Kagyu Lineage
The Drukpa Kagyu is a wonderful lineage of spiritual practice that stems from Je Gampopa and the latter's disciple Phagmo Drupa. The Tibetan name "Druk" means "dragon", and the Shri Drukpa Kagyu is therefore known as the Dragon School of the great Kagyu family. The chief of all Lamas for the Dragon School is Guru Padmasambhava, the "second Buddha," and every tenth day of the lunar month special rituals are celebrated in his honor. So popular is this School that in Kham, eastern Tibet, there was the saying: "Half the people are Drukpa, half the Drukpa are wandering Yogins, and half of these Yogins are enlightened saints!" This is because the teachings of the Drukpa Kagyu especially focused on meditation practice.

[[Rang snang]], [[three main meanings]] <br>


1) [[Manifestation of one's own nature]]: as when one says that the manifestation which arises from the primordial ground is the manifestation of the absolute nature of the ground itself, or when one says that Samantabhadra recognizes that the arising of phenomena is a manifestation of his own nature and is liberated.<br>
[[Category:Lineages]][[Category:Lineages & Teachings]][[Category:Drukpa Kagyu]]
 
2) [[Natural manifestation]]: as when one says that the [[sambhogakaya]] [[Buddhafield]]s are a natural manifestation of [[Samantabhadra]]'s [[pristine wisdom]].<br>
 
3) [[Manifestation appearing to oneself]]: as when one speaks of the [[nirmanakaya]] Buddhafields which appear to the the Buddhas themselves but not to other beings, not even to the Bodhisattvas of the tenth bhumi. (As opposed to [[gzhan snang]], "which appears to others").<br>
 
Although according to the context one of these meanings can be emphasized and chosen as translation, the three meanings of [[rang snang]] are always present. [MR]<br>
 
[[rgyal tshab spyi lugs kyi dbang]]:<br>
When the Chakravartin was to designate his successor he would gather his five hundred sons and give the empowering vase to his royal elephant who would go and put it on the head of the prince who has been chosen, who at that very moment became the heir to the throne.<br>
It also refers to an essential form of bestowing the [[four empowerments condensed into one]], by giving the blessing with the vase and transferring the totality of the blessing as it emptying completely one vase into another.<br>
the corresponding [[six wisdoms]] and liberate from suffering the [[beings of the six realms]]. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Samye]], ([[bsam yas]]). The first monastery built in Tibet, by Guru Padmasambhava, where the Buddhist canonical scriptures were translated into Tibetan, and where Guru Rinpoche gave many profound teachings and initiations. [MR]<br>

[[Seven Noble Riches]] ([['phags pa'i nor bdun]]) <br>
Faith, which is like a river;<br> discipline, which is like a flower;<br> generosity, which is like a jewel;<br> learning, which is like an ocean;<br> samaya, which is like a crystal; <br>sense of shame, which is like not being deceived by one's parents ([[pa mas mi bslu ba lta bu]]);<br> and wisdom, which is like a sun. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Seven-point posture of Vairochana]] ([[nam snang chos bdun]]):<br>
 
1) The legs should be crossed in the [[Vajrasana posture]], the right one over the left.<br>
2) The hands closed into fists, with the thumb pressing the base of the fourth finger, are placed on the thighs at the juncture with the pelvis, and the elbows then locked straight. (Two variations of this are to place the hands palms up, right over left, on the lap, with elbows bent out to the sides, or to place both hands palms down, relaxed, on the knees.)<br>
3) The shoulders should be raised and rolled slightly forward.<br>
4) The spine should be kept straight, "like a pile of golden coins."<br>
5) The chin should be tucked in slightly towards the throat.<br>
6) The tip of the tongue should be curled up to touch the palate.<br>
7) The eyes should be kept unwaveringly focused at a distance of l2 fingers' breadth ahead of the tip of the nose, without blinking. [MR]<br>

[[Six masters]] ([[slob spon drug]]):
The [[spyi'i slob dpon]] is a prominent master who is everyone's teacher, like His Holiness the Dalai Lama.<br>
[['dren pa'i slob dpon]] is the teacher who takes you across the door of the Dharma. (For instance one who gives you refuge or monastic vows.)<br>
[[dam tshig dbang gi lob dpon]] is the master from whom you received an [[abhisheka]], and to whom you are thus linked with [[samaya]]s.<br>
[[nyams chag skong ba'i slob dpon]] is the one who receives your confession and helps you repair any breach of the [[Three Vows]] ([[sdom gsum]]).<br>
[[shes rgyud 'grol gyi slob dpon]] is the one who gives you instructions and explains the scriptures, thus liberating your being.<br>
[[man ngag lung gi slob dpon]] is the one who transmits you the [[pith instruction]]s.[MR] <br>
 
The [[six lopons]] mentioned in the [[tshig mdzod chen mo]] and are taken from the [[chos kyi rnam grangs shes ldan yid kyi dga' ston]] of the [[Second Jamyang Shepa]], [[Jigme Konchog Wangpo]]. This is a different enumeration. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Six modes of exposition]] ([['chad pa'i mtshul drug]]) are: body straight, the eyebrows hightened, gazing with the eyes half closed, mouth open, with the tongue extended in between the conch-white teeth, and speaking with the melodious voice of Brahma. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Six ways of expounding the inner tantras]] ([[drug]]:[['chad pa'i mtha' drug]]), as mentioned in the [[rgyud gal po che]]: (1) According to the [[conventional meaning /truth]] ([[drang don]]), (2) [[Ultimate certain meaning]] /truth (nges don), (3) With a [[hidden meaning behind intelligible words which have an ordinary meaning]] ([[dgons pa can]]), (4) In a [[explicit way, without hidden meaning]] (dgons min), (5) In [[ordinary words of common language]] ([[sgra ji bzhin pa]]), and (6) in [[symbolic words arranged in sentences which makes no sense without a key for their understanding]] ([[sgra ji bzhin ma yin pa]]) [MR] <br>

[[Sur burnt offering]] ([[gsur]]) : and offering of smoke produced by burning barley flour, [[tsampa]], mixed with the "[[three whites]]" ([[milk, butter, and cheese]]), the "[[three sweets]]" ([[sugar, molasses and honey]]), and blessed substances. This smoke, accompanied with a meditation upon the [[Buddha of Compassion]], [[Avalokiteshvara]] in the form of [[Kasarpani]] and the recitation of his mantra, [[Om mani padme hum]], relieves from the unending pangs of hunger and thirst of the [[hungry ghosts]], the [[pretas]]. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Ten unvirtuous actions]]: ([[mi dge ba bcu]]) Three by body - to kill, to steal, and to have an improper sexual conduct; four by the speech - to lie, to slander, to chatter uselessly, and to say harsh words; and three by the mind - to wish to harm, to envy, and to hold false views. The ten virtuous actions are to avoid the ten unvirtuous ones and practice their opposite. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Ten glorious ornaments ]] ([[dpal gyi chas bcu]])<br>
[[rgya bye chen po lcags kyi chas]],<br> [[bse khrab dbang gi chas]],<br> [[gcan gzan gzig gi chas]], <br>[[sprul pa rdo rje'i chas]], <br>[[gdug pa sbrul kyi chas]],<br> [[dpa' bo stag gi chas]], <br>[[gzi gdangs zhing lpags kyi chas]],<br> [[dmar gsal khrag gi chas]],<br> [[rtsal chen seng ge'i chas]],<br> [[gdug pa dom kyi chas]]. [MR]<br>
<br>
<br>
[[Three Divisions of Dzogchen]] ([[rdzogs chen sde gsum]])
 
[[The Great Perfection]] ([[rdzog pa chen po]]) contains three mains divisions,<br> the [[Cycle of Mind]] ([[sems sde]])<br> the [[Cycle of Space /Expanse]] ([[klong sde]]),<br> and the [[Cycle of Pith Instruction]] ([[man gnag sde]]). <br>
The [[Cycle of Mind]] was transmitted linearly following two main lineages, that of [[Nyang Yeshe Jungney]] ([[nyang ye shes 'byung gnas]]) and [[Aro Yeshe Jungney]] ([[A ro ye shes 'byung gnas]]), to which one often add a third, the [[lineage of Kham, Eastern Tibet]] ([[khams lugs]]). The [[Cycle of Mind]] includes [[eighteen tantras]] among which the ([[kun byed rgyal po]]) is the root. The root tantra of the [[Cycle of Space]] is the  ([[rdo je zam pa]]) and the root tantra of the [[Pith Instruction Cycle]] is the ([[sgra thal 'gyur]]). [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Three levels of wisdom]]([[ye shes gsum]]):<br>
 
1) [[Conventional, worldly wisdom]]:<br>
Basically consists of the four traditional sciences, which are healing, logic, languages and crafts.<br>
2) [[Ultimate, transworldly wisdom]]: <br>
Is the [[inner science]] based on the teachings of the [[sravakas]] and the [[pratyekabuddhas]], and leads to recognition that [[physical aggregates]] which are unclean necessarily involve suffering, are impermanent and devoid of inherent existence.<br>
3) [[The wisdom of realization]]:<br>
Is based upon the mahayana teachings and leads to the thorough realization of the empty nature of phenomena, which are unoriginated, baseless and rootless.
Each of these wisdoms must be practiced gradually through hearing, reflecting, and assimilating them through meditation. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Three planes]] ([[sa gsum]]) : <br>The realms of [[celestial beings]] above the earth, of [[human beings]] upon the earth,<br> and of the [[nagas]] below the earth. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Three pure conditions for eating meat]]:<br> That one doess not kill an animal for meat, or ask someone to kill it, or take the meat of an animal that has been killed for oneself even though one did not ask for it. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Three sorts of laziness]] ([[le lo gsum]]):<br> Indolence, which is to be prone to sleep and idleness. Faint-heartedness, which is to be discouraged before even beginning to strive, thinking, "Someone like me will never reach enlightenment, however much I may try." Laziness of neglecting true priorities, which is to be stuck in non-virtuous ways of acting and be only concerned only with affairs limited to this life. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Three vows]], ([[sdom gsum]]):<br>
The [[pratimoksa vows]] concern all the lay and monastic precepts of conduct taught by Lord Buddha in the [[Vinaya]].<br>
The [[bodhisattva vows]] are in essence the wish to generate, cultivate and preserve the vow to dedicate all one's thoughts, words and actions solely to the benefit of others. <br>
Relatively, this means the exercise of [[loving kindness]], [[compassion]], and the [[six paramitas]], ultimately leading all beings to complete [[enlightenment]].<br>
The [[samaya vows]] are the sacramental links created when a [[disciple]] attends a [[spiritual master]] and receives from him an [[initiation]]. Although it is said that there are one hundred thousand samayas in the [[Mantrayana]], they can be condensed into the samayas related to the [[body, speech and mind of the guru]]. [MR]<br>
<br>
[[Trekchö]] and [[Thögal]], ([[khregs chod]] and [[thod rgal]]):<br>
The practices of cutting through the solidity of clinging and of direct vision, these two relating respectively to [[primordial purity]] ([[ka dag]]) and [[spontaneous accomplishment]] ([[lhun grup]]).  [MR]<br>
<br>
[[twelve deeds performed by fully enlightened Buddhas]] ([[mdzad pa bcu gnyis]]):<br>

8) [[Going to the Bodhi Tree]], ([[byang chub shin drung du gshegs pa]])<br>
9) [[Defeating the legions of Mara]], ([[bdud sde bcom]]).<br>
10) [[Attaining full enlightenment under the Bodhi Tree]]. ([[byang chub]])<br>
11) [[Turning the Wheel of the Dharma]], ([[chos 'khor]]).<br>
12) [[Passing into the ultimate peace beyond suffering]] ([[parinirvana]], [[myang 'das]]).  [MR]<br>
<br>
<br>

<br>
[[Ushnisha]]: ([[gtsug thor]]) - one of the major marks of a fully enlightened Buddha is a protuberance which raises at the infinite in space from the top of a Buddha' head, and can be seen only by a bodhisattva who attained the [[first bhumi]]. In the [[Kalachakra Tantra]], the usnisa corresponds to the [[Sky Chakra]] ([[gnam mkha'i 'khorlo]]), the [[sixth chakra]], which extends upwards without limit and represents the [[unlimited wisdom of enlightenment]]. In the [[thögal practice]] of the [[Great Perfection]], the [[usnisa]] corresponds to the visions of [[five-color lights]] and [[buddhafield]]s which manifest above one's head as the infinite display of sambhogakaya's realization. [MR]<br>

A Brief History of the Glorious Drukpa Kagyu Lineage The Drukpa Kagyu is a wonderful lineage of spiritual practice that stems from Je Gampopa and the latter's disciple Phagmo Drupa. The Tibetan name "Druk" means "dragon", and the Shri Drukpa Kagyu is therefore known as the Dragon School of the great Kagyu family. The chief of all Lamas for the Dragon School is Guru Padmasambhava, the "second Buddha," and every tenth day of the lunar month special rituals are celebrated in his honor. So popular is this School that in Kham, eastern Tibet, there was the saying: "Half the people are Drukpa, half the Drukpa are wandering Yogins, and half of these Yogins are enlightened saints!" This is because the teachings of the Drukpa Kagyu especially focused on meditation practice.
