Mahasiddha ZoghipaYogipa / Jogipa (dzo gi pa): “The Candali Pilgrim

Yogipa was from Odantapuri of the candela caste, and his guru was Savaripa.

Although he made great effort, he still had little wisdom.

One day, his guru came to him and initiated him into Hevajra with instructions for the Developing Stage and the Perfection Stage, then sent him off to meditate.

However, Yogipa was still unable to understand the meaning of the instructions, so he went back to his guru to express his concern, and made a request to perform meritorious acts by just using body and speech.

So his guru taught him the recitation of Vajra-Heruka and told him to consummate his practice by going to the 24 great places.

Yogipa practiced diligently for 12 years, and eventually purified the stains and obtained the siddhi of Mahamudra.

For 5 years he aided the various purposes of living beings, and then went to the realm of the Dakas in this very body.
