Rechung Dorje Drakpa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rechung Dorje Drakpa (Wylie: Ras-chung Rdo-rje Grags-pa), known as Rechungpa, was one of two important students of the 11th century yogi and poet Milarepa (the other being Gampopa). Rechungpa founded the Rechung Kagyud school.

Tibetan Buddhists believe Rechungpa compiled the The Six Equal Tastes from Indian sources. The text was hidden by Rechungpa, later to be recovered by the terton Tsangpa Gyare, founder of the Drukpa order in western Tibet.
