The Secret Yoga Of Naropa That Changes Everything

The Six Doctrines of Nāropa are the most significant yogic and meditative techniques of the Tibetan Kagyu School. Also known as the Six Yogas of Nāropa, or the Six Dharmas of Nāropa, they encompass what Tibetan masters call “the oral instruction transmission for achieving liberation in the bardo,” which is the path to achieving Buddhahood, the condition and state of a buddha.
This collection of advanced tantric practices was transmitted by Tilopa and Nāropa to the Tibetan translator-yogi Marpa Lotsawa. Although Tilopa initially taught these techniques, it was Nāropa who refined and expanded them into a comprehensive system and then transmitted this knowledge to his disciples, particularly Marpa. This is why these practices bear Nāropa’s name.
As with almost all Buddhist teachings, it is said that the original source of the Six Doctrines of Nāropa comes from Buddha himself, who 2,500 years ago taught many sutras and tantras. The Six Yogas are thus considered a synthesis of numerous tantric doctrines he taught.
As we previously mentioned, this system was first formulated by the Indian master Tilopa. So it's only fair that we start by asking ourselves:
When we refer to the Six Doctrines-Tummo (Inner Heat), Gyulu (Illusory Body), Ösel (Clear Light), Milam (Dream Yoga), Bardo (Intermediate State), and Phowa (Transference of Consciousness)-we are referring to practices that, as with all Buddhist teachings, ultimately aim to lead individuals to Buddhahood, a state characterized by compassion, wisdom, and skillful means.
The yoga of Inner Heat (Tummo) is considered the root of the path, as it purifies our mind and body, leading to profound states of realization and blissful awareness. The practice begins with visualizing our body’s energy channels, winds, drops, and chakras. Through specific breath-holding exercises, we generate inner heat, which helps vital winds flow into the central channel, inducing blissful experiences. This yoga also involves focusing on seed syllables at the chakras and meditating on emptiness. Over time, we aim to master this process, achieving enhanced clarity, inner heat, and bliss.
The yoga of Illusory Body (Gyulu) helps us recognize the illusory nature of all phenomena, including our own body, thereby deepening our insight into emptiness. By studying our reflection in the mirror, we visualize our nondual bodymind and aim to dissolve duality into a state of nonduality.

[@ZBB0001]

Ok listen, i'm a Drukpa monk and I've received the oral transmission of the Yogas of Naropa. The important one is tummo or the generation of inner heat. It drives the others (and more). But phowa or consciousness exchange was lost with the death of Marpa's son. It does not exist today. Why mention it in the title? Otherwise I would say the video is quite good.

[@ཀུནབཟང]

Phuwa or phowa is what every buddhist receives when they die from a monk or buddhist religious practitioner. It is a very important ritual that needs to be undertaken... You need to visit the monk or practitioner with a belonging of the deceased like a ring or anything and they will do the phuwa part..

To get into this world, one must start early. I have seen many failed examples who get into all these higher level tantric activities at a later stage in life and lose mental balance because this requires a strong mind groomed properly right in the beginning.

[@JenTalks247]

i do take your point however it takes some of us a lifetime to simply remember what we already knew. this birth is not the beginning. truly i see no beginning.

[@Ranjanapati07]

@JenTalks247 there is no beginning and no end, its a continuous process of endless rebirth and every life adds to our experiences by bringing changes to our DNA and linked energy, accordingly next birth is decided, linked to related cosmic energy. So be very careful of what you actually absorb and get connected to, be restricted in the selection of people and have minimal communication.

[@haceletkitoviamirai8518]

In the buddhist scripture.. we are in the doom era.. meaning the most spiritual knowledge are being reveal. It is a must.. 2500years later which is today.. and mankind will go back to faith in good or bad. Manipulation of religion power will be on the rise. Just a prediction.. maybe knowledge allow us to move with time and gaining wisdom.

Don't say lie. Its not only Buddhist university. One of the oldest university in the world. First one was thakshashila. In Nalanda has teaching all subjects. But that period was little bit buddist influence in india. Thats true.

[@jigmetskalzang462]

Thakshashila is also a Buddhist university. And also Nalanda is a pure Buddhist university and those teachings of Nalanda were kept alive by Tibetan Buddhist and Himalayan Buddhist for centuries so do some research and don’t spread lie here..

[@GirigiriBharath]

@jigmetskalzang462 study properly in thakshashila also was teach all subjects. there was some buddist influence at time in india. I accept it. Because the reason was stupid priest gang destroyed the essence of hindu dharmma. That time buddha came. He just select and collect good things from mother hood hindu dharms. He didn't prepare a new religion. He jyst clean and unwanted thungs throughout from Sanathan dhatmma. Buddhism is one arm of sanathan hindu dhsrma. Unfortunately few centuries agter becane a religious character... Actually stupid Hindu priest gang and some of buddist fundamentalist people creat the separation..

[@jigmetskalzang462]

@ ??? What rubbish are you talking . Firstly there is no Hindu dharm or sanatan dharma at buddhas time and the word sanatan is actually stolen from Buddhist script by Hindus and the word Hindu is give by Persian people which are Muslim

@jigmetskalzang462 dey, when was budha born? 😄😄 hindu. That word was Persian word. Because Persian use the word sa its ha. Sindu / hindu.

[@GirigiriBharath]

@jigmetskalzang462 shame, Buddhist thoughts adopt hindu dharma? 😄😄😄 shame. Buddha's burth was almost 2500/600 years. But Sanathan dhatmma"s age can't calculate. Budha use nibana? What is this? In sanathan dharmma we use Nirvana. In pali language call nibana = Sanskrit Nirvana.
