Shakyamuni Buddha (5th or 6th century BCE) is said to have foretold that many centuries later a fully realized teacher would appear “in the land of the red-faced ones,” who would wear “monastic robes and a black crown.” Beginning in 1110, seventeen persons holding the title of Karmapa were born in succession, up through the current Karmapa, Orgyen Trinley Dorje, the seventeenth, who was born in 1985. “Karmapa,” refers literally to ‘the one who performs the activity of a Buddha,’ and each Karmapa is renowned for his mastery in meditation, the profundity of his teaching and the courage in his leadership of the Buddhist community.
