06 The Third Return from India


high-definition creative commons posters depicting The Third Return from India from The Life of Marpa the Translator together with further information.

Marpa receives Nāropa’s final command-prophecy, establishing him as regent for Tibet. He bids farewell to Nāropa and visits Maitrīpa, receiving further abhiṣekas and witnessing miraculous signs. Returning through Nepal, he meets Paiṇḍapa and other disciples, singing songs of his eight wondrous signs of meeting Nāropa, his realization of Maitrīpa’s mahāmudrā, and the hardships he endured. He finally returns to Lhotrak, where Marpa Golek and other disciples welcome him. This was his last journey to India.
