Milarepa: Brief Introduction

Milarepa is one of the most widely known Tibetan Saints. In a superhuman effort he rose above the miseries of his younger life and with the help of his Guru Marpa the Translator took to a solitary life of meditation until he had achieved the pinnacle of the enlightened state never to be born again into the Samsara (whirlpool of life and death) of worldly existence. Out of compassion for humanity he undertook the most rigid asceticism to reach the Buddhic state of enlightenment and to pass his accomplishments on to the rest of humanity. His spiritual lineage was passed along to his chief disciples Gambopa and Rechung. It was Rechung who recorded in detail the incidents of Milarepa's life for posterity. The narrative of his life has thus been passed down through almost a millennium of time and has become an integral part of Tibetan culture. In addition to Rechung's narrative of his life summarized below Milarepa extemporaneously composed innumerable songs throughout his life relevant to the dramatic turns of events of himself and his disciples in accordance with an art form that was in practice at the time. These songs have been widely sung and studied in Tibet ever since and have been recorded as the Hundred Thousand Songs of Milarepa. His faithful devotion boundless religious zeal monumental forbearance superhuman perseverance and ultimate final attainment are a great inspiration today for all. His auspicious life illumined the Buddhist faith and brought the light of wisdom to sentient beings everywhere.IconographyMilarepa is mostly seen sittedLife StoryBorn in the village of Kya Ngatsa - also known as Tsa - in Gungthang province of western Tibet to a prosperous family he was named Mila ThÃ¶paga (Thos-pa-dga') which means "A joy to hear." His family name Josay indicates noble descent a sept of the Khyungpo or eagle clan. When his father died Milarepa's uncle and aunt took all of the family's wealth. At his mother's request Milarepa left home and studied sorcery. While his aunt and uncle were having a party to celebrate the impending marriage of their son he took his revenge by summoning a giant hail storm to demolish their house killing 35 people although the uncle and aunt are supposed to have survived. The villagers were angry and set off to look for Milarepa but his mother got word to him and he sent a hailstorm to destroy their crops.

Many of Milarepa's deeds took place in Chokyi Dronma's homeland and his life and songs were compiled by Tsangnyon Heruka sponsored by Chokyi Dronma's brother the Gungthang king Thri Namgyal De.

Milarepa later lamented his evil ways in his older years: "In my youth I committed black deeds. In maturity I practiced innocence. Now released from both good and evil I have destroyed the root of karmic action and shall have no reason for action in the future. To say more than this would only cause weeping and laughter. What good would it do to tell you? I am an old man. Leave me in peace."LinageMilarepa is famous for many of his songs and poems in which he expresses the profundity of his realization of the dharma. He also had many disciples male and female including Rechung Dorje Drakpa (Ras-chung Rdo-rje Grags-pa) and Gampopa (Sgam-po-pa Dhakpo Lhaje). His female disciples include Rechungma Padarbum Sahle Aui and Tsheringma.It was Gampopa who became Milarepa's spiritual successor continued his lineage and became one of the main lineage masters in Milarepa's tradition.
