Padmasambhava ('Lotus Born') is the embodiment of active wisdom and compassion as it arises from the vast expanse of the enlightened mind of all the Victorious Ones. Also known as Guru Rinpoche ('Precious Guru'), Padmasambhava was a renowned tantric master of Nothern India. In the eighth century he came to Tibet and subdued the hostile spirits obstructing the spread of Buddhist teachings and converted them into powerful protectors of the Dharma. During his time in Tibet, Padmasambhava founded monasteries, taught tantric doctrine, and benefited countless beings. He sits in the posture of royal ease, displaying the naturally awakened state in which everything relaxes into the condition of primordial purity.
