[[Guru Loden Choksé]] ( ’[[Wise Seeker of the Sublime]]’) — one of the [[Eight Manifestations of Guru Rinpoche]].
 
 
 
    [[Guru Rinpoche]] would [[master]] a [[teaching]] the first [[time]] he encountered it, and [[experienced]] visions of [[deities]] without needing to practise. [[Attaining]] the first [[vidyadhara]] level, the stage of ‘the [[vidyadhara level of maturation]]’ or ‘[[vidyadhara with karmic residue]]’, he was known as [[Loden Choksé]], ‘[[Wise Seeker of the Sublime]]’.
 
 
 
The [[Eight Manifestations of Guru Rinpoche]]  are the 8 principal [[forms]] assumed by [[Guru Rinpoche]] at different points in his [[life]]:
 
 
 
    [[Guru Tsokyé Dorje]] ([[birth]])
 
    [[Guru Shakya Sengé]] ([[ordination]])
 
    [[Guru Nyima Özer]] (subjugating {{Wiki|demonic}} [[spirits]])
 
    [[Guru Padmasambhava]] (establishing [[Buddhism]] in [[Tibet]])
 
    [[Guru Loden Choksé]] ([[mastery]] of the teachings)
 
    [[Guru Pema Gyalpo]] (kingship)
 
    [[Guru Sengé Dradrok]] (subjugation of non-buddhists)
 
    [[Guru Dorje Drolö]] (concealing [[terma]], binding [[spirits]] under oath)
 
 
 
The [[Eight Manifestations of Padmasambhava]] do not depict different [[Padmasambhavas]], but reflect his ability to appear according to different needs and demands. In fact, they are called in [[Tibetan]] [[Guru Tsen Gyé]], the [[eight ‘names’ of the Guru]]; each [[manifestation]] demonstrates a different [[principle]] that unveils the innermost [[nature of mind]].
 
 
 
As [[Guru Rinpoche]] said: “[[Mind]] itself is [[Padmasambhava]]; there is no practice or [[meditation]] apart from that.”
