	Kagyu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Kagyu (Wylie transliteration: Bka'-brgyud) school, also known as the "Oral Lineage" and "the Spotless Practice Lineage" school, is one of four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism, the other three being Nyingma (Rnying-ma), Sakya (Sa-skya), and Gelug (Dge-lugs).
		The Kagyu school traces its origins to the teachings of the Indian mystics Tilopa (988-1089) and Naropa (1016-1100), whose lineage was transmitted in Tibet by the great translator Marpa (1012-1097).
		Important practices in all kagyu schools are the tantric practices of chakrasamvara and vajravarahi.

	The Kagyu Lineage - the Karmapa website
		One of the heart essences of Kagyu lineage practices is the Completion Stage (rdzogs rim / Sampanakrama) practice of the Anuttarayoga Mother tantra, which is known as the Six Dharmas Of Naropa (nA ro chos drug), widely known in the west as the Six Yogas Of Naropa.
		The Kagyu lineage that comes down to the Karmapa is known as the "Golden Rosary." The lineage of the Kagyu emphasizes the continuity of oral instructions passed on from master to student.
		The symbol of the transmission of the wisdom of the lineage is the Vajra Crown, or Black Crown, of the Karmapas.

	Dharma Fellowship: Kagyu Tradition
		Since the Kagyu Order is especially known for its emphasis on disciplined meditation practice, we are particularly called the "practice lineage".
		The Kagyu Order is a school that guides seekers on the spiritual path through an interplay of direct questioning and answer, pointing out the true nature, through the course of meditation, and this occurs during an intimate form of oral instruction between teacher and student.
		The Golden Rosary of the Kagyu descends from the supernal Absolute (vajradhara) itself, to the blessed yogis Tilopa and Naropa, to Marpa, Milarepa, Gampopa, the first Karmapa Du-sum Khyenpa, and from the latter through a whole succession of masters, to the present 17th Karmapa, Urgyen Thinley Dorje.

		Thereafter they were preserved through the various Kagyu lineages in Tibet and in particular by the extraordinary line of the Gyalwa Karmapas.
		Implicit to this process is the spontaneous appreciation and rapid assimilation that occurs when a student has a natural feel for a subject.
		These four, one of which is intimate knowledge of mind and the other three skilful areas of technique, have been transmitted in their original integrity, via a lineage of perfect masters and perfected students, from the time of Tilopa until our present day.

		The Karma Kagyu lineage is named after the Karmapa where Karma-pa refers to the Activity family of Buddhas.

	The Kagyu Tradition - Ven Traleg Rinpoche
		The Kagyu tradition however, belongs to what is known as the New Schools (sarma), which were established in Tibet in the tenth century during what is known as the 'later spread', chidar in Tibetan.
		The teachings of both the Nyingma and Kagyu had to deal with the issue of what was Indian, and therefore foreign and extraneous to Tibetan culture, and what was indigenous to it, in their assimilation of Buddhist teachings and practices.
		The Kagyu tradition, therefore, is a blend of the freestyle teachings that were embodied by the Mahasiddhas and the strict disciplined tradition of the Kadampas, which were brought together by Gampopa.
