[edit] Head of Kagyu?

Can someone knowledgeable clarify the relationship between the Karmapas, the Karma Kagyu lineage, and the Kagyu school as a whole? The Karmapas are sometimes described as the head of the Kagyu school, but I sometimes get the impression that, while they are the most recognizable Kagyu lamas, they are really only the boss of their own Karma Kagyu subset. - Nat Krause 16:05, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)
