The Torch of the Teachings - Meditation on Mahāmudrā Instructions

The instruction given in this reading is from "The Ganges Mahāmudrā" transmitted from Tilopa to Naropa.
Tilopa (Prakrit; Sanskrit: Talika or Tilopadā; 988-1069) was an Indian Buddhist monk in the tantric Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism.
He lived along the Ganges River, with wild ladies as a tantric practitioner and mahasiddha. He practiced Anuttarayoga Tantra, a set of spiritual practices intended to accelerate the process of attaining Buddhahood. He became a holder of all the tantric lineages, possibly the only person in his day to do so. As well as the way of insight, and Mahamudra he learned and passed on the Way of Methods, today known as the 6 Yogas of Naropa, and guru yoga. Naropa is considered his main student.
