Stanowisko
Atisha came to Tibet at a time when monastic discipline, philosophical study and tantric practice were felt to be in conflict. His Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment ordered them into one graded path for three kinds of practitioner: those seeking a better rebirth, those seeking their own liberation, and those who, moved by compassion, strive for awakening for all. At the top stand bodhicitta and the view of emptiness of Nagarjuna’s Madhyamaka as read by Candrakirti; tantric practice presupposes ethics and insight. His disciple Dromtonpa founded the Kadam school, whose mind-training (lojong) teachings trace back to Atisha. Tsongkhapa’s Gelug order saw itself as the new Kadam.
