Seeking sacred dharma instructions, the Great Magician (Milarepa) submits to Lama Marpa to purify his past evil deeds. Marpa subjects him to relentless trials, repeatedly forcing him to build and tear down massive stone towers while refusing to grant him secret initiations. Despite festering sores, harsh beatings, and a failed attempt to receive teachings elsewhere through forged permission, he faithfully endures this profound suffering to purify his negative karma.
