Video Clip 1: The 17th Gyalwa Karmapa
The Karmapa is one of the most important holders of the teachings of Tibetan Buddhism. The first Karmapa, Düsum Khyenpa (1110-1193), one of the most prominent lamas of his time, indicated prior to his death that he was to take rebirth again in Tibet. The second Karmapa, Karma Pakshi (1204-1283), was thus the first reborn lama of Tibet. Since then, the Karmapas continued to reincarnate in Tibet and to guide the Karma Kagyu tradition. This video clip is an introduction to His present reincarnation, the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa, Trinley Thaye Dorje.
