The Ear-whispered Lineage Of The Great Individuals, which are the teachings of the Nirmanakaya Buddha, originating from the Five Buddha families to the great human emanation master:
Garab Dorje, and then to
Manjushrimitra,
Shrisimha,
Padmasambhava,
Jnanasutra,
Vimalamitra and
Vairochana.
This lineage then started and continued in Tibet, and continues through the present day.
This is sometimes called the Whispering Lineage, not because the master literally whispered the teaching to his pupil, but rather in reference to the continuum of verbal transmission to a select number of high calibre students.
Tilopa in turn gave the whispered teachings to Naropa who had previously been chancellor of Nalanda University in India.
Naropa's twelve years of service to Tilopa are regarded as a great example of devotion to one's teacher.
