"Anyone who knows the Jewel Ornament well can say that they really understand Buddhism." Khenpo Konchog Gyaltsen. "Dharma Lord Gampopa (1074-1153) was the principle student of Milarepa. He brought two systems of teachings together: Atisha's Kadampa tradition and Naropa's Mahamudra tradition. His teachings were said to be clear `like the sun'. "The Jewel Ornament of Liberation" is considered to be the most significant of his many texts.
