*'''[[Padmasambhava]]''' (Skt.), or '''Padmakara''' (Skt. ''Padmākara''; Tib. [[པདྨ་འབྱུང་གནས་]], ''Pemajungné''; [[Wyl.]] ''pad+ma 'byung gnas'') means ‘Lotus-Born’, which refers to Guru Rinpoche's birth from a lotus in the land of [[Oddiyana]]. '''Guru Rinpoche''', the ‘Precious Master’, is the founder of [[Tibetan Buddhism]] and the [[Buddha]] of our time. Whereas Buddha is known primarily for having taught the teachings of the [[sutra]] vehicle, Padmasambhava came into this world, and to Tibet in particular, in order to teach the [[tantra]]s. While [[Buddha Shakyamuni]] exemplifies the buddha principle, the most important element in the [[sutrayana]] path, Padmasambhava personifies the [[guru]] principle, the heart of [[Vajrayana]] Buddhism...

:While Guru Rinpoche was visiting Tibet…he conferred the Longchen Nyingtik teachings on [[King Trisong Detsen]], [[Khandro Yeshe Tsogyal]], and [[Vairotsana|Vairochana]]… He gave prophetic [[empowerment]]s by saying that the teachings would be discovered by Jikmé Lingpa, an incarnation (''[[tulku]]'') of King Trisong Detsen.  ([[Longchen Nyingtik|Read more...]])

[[Khenpo Namdrol]] said: Concerning the study of the ''Bodhicharyavatara'', my teacher [[Khenpo Tsöndrü]] told me that though the meaning of the text is not difficult to understand, applying the teachings to one’s mind is far more difficult. The purpose of the Dharma is to transform the mind, to free us from our attachment to worldly concerns. Among all treatises and texts, Shantideva’s ''Bodhicharyavatara'' and Paltrul Rinpoche’s ''[[Words of My Perfect Teacher]]'' are the most powerful texts that serve this purpose.
