This tradition was introduced to Tibet by the great [[Lotsawa]] [[Marpa]] and his student [[Milarepa]]. Milarepa's student [[Gampopa]] later fused the teachings of Marpa with teachings he had received in the [[Kadam]] lineage of [[Atisha]]. The lineages stemming from Gampopa came to be known as the [[Dakpo Kagyu]].
