Lama Drakpo Tapur
Lama Drakpo Tapur, aka Lama Drakpo Tamdrin Phurba (Wyl. bla ma drag po rta phur zung 'jug gi dril sgrub zab mo), ‘The Profound Combined Sadhana of the Wrathful Lama Union of Hayagriva and Vajrakilaya’ is the innermost secret practice of the Tsokye Tuktik terma cycle of Dudjom Rinpoche.
Purpose
Lama Drakpo Tapur is a wrathful yidam, combination of Hayagriva and Vajrakilaya.
Content
Lama Drakpo Tapur is depicted as a black Hayagriva-Vajrakilaya, with a red and a lapis-lazuli head, 6 arms holding sword, snake lasso, iron vajra and phurba, 4 feet trambling on maras, in union with black-blue Vajravarahi. Above the crown of his head is a red Garuda and the lord of the family is Amitayus in union with his consort.
Revelation of the Terma
The practice was revealed by Dudjom Rinpoche in 1929, while he was still in Tibet. According to him, “the Tsokyi Tuktik is the father cycle connected to the Khandro Tuktik mother cycle”[1]. About the Tsokye Tuktik, Dudjom Rinpoche said “For the fortunately connected students, I released the secret seal of the casket spontaneously arisen from the space of awareness”.
