 The Teaching of Phowa (Transference of Consciousness at the Time of Death)
DRIKUNG PHOWA CHEN MO Account of the Great Drikun Phowa It is very difficult to attain the precious human body and having attained it one must utilize it to reach Buddhahood through the proper hearing, contemplation and meditation of the precious teachings.
Because of all this, the Drikung Phowa is becoming particularly relevant in these times simply because in today's society we do not have the time nor the circumstances to walk the spiritual path of the Dharma as did our predecessors in the past.
The Drikung Kagyu order of Tibetan Buddhism holds the precious teachings of all the yanks which Shakyamuni Buddha taught for the benefit of all sentient beings.

The Kagyu denomination is held to originate with Vajradhara, the buddha Dorje Chang, who embodies all forms and aspects of all buddhas.

 Manjushri - Tibetan Kadampa School Teaching
Gampopa, having met with Milarepa, received all the instructions of the Kagyu lineage, which he mastered by progressively proceeding through the four stages of mahamudra: one- pointedness (rtse-gcig), free from conceptual elaboration (spros-bral), one taste (ro-gcig) and non-meditation (sgom-med), this process culminating in perfect realisation of mahamudra.
Thus, the particular feature of the Kagyu lineage is that the teacher, having mastered the instructions, clears away defects - relating to intellectual understanding, meditation experience and the various levels of realisation.
The Kagyu (bka'-brgyud) lineage was founded by the great siddha Tilopa (988-1069), also known as Prajnabhadra.
