Synopsis: Nãropa, a foremost scholar at the ancient Buddhist university of Nãlandä, was shown the shortcomings of his knowledge by a Dãkini. After an arduous search, he found his teacher Tilopa, who instructed him in the Mahãmudrã and other Vajrayãna teachings. In this 18th-century painting the great siddha Nãropa blows on an antelope horn and holds a skullcup in his left hand. At his side, his sister Nigumä, a realized yogini, offers him a skullcup filled with nectar. Above him is Sri Cakrasamvara, tutelary deity of his lineage. The tiger in the foreground suggests his power of yogic insight. |
