Lawapa or Lavapa (〔"Wa ba pa" (Tibetan) holds the semantic field "the one with goitre". Source: () (accessed: January 30, 2008).〕) was a figure in Tibetan Buddhism who flourished in the 10th century. He was also known as Kambala and Kambalapada (Sanskrit: ). Lawapa, was a mahasiddha, or accomplished yogi, who travelled to Tsari.〔Dharma Dictionary (2008). ''la ba pa.'' Source: () (accessed: January 29, 2008)〕 Lawapa was a progenitor of the Dream Yoga sādhanā and it was from Lawapa that the mahasiddha Tilopa received the Dream Yoga practice lineage. Bhattacharya,〔(Bhattacharya Bhattacharya ) (2005: unpaginated)〕 while discussing ancient Bengali literature, proffers that Lawapa composed the ''Kambalagītika'' ( "Lawapa's Song")〔Source: () (accessed: January 30, 2008)〕 and a few songs of realization in the ''Charyapada''.〔Bhattacharya, Tanmoy (2005). ''Literature in Ancient Bengal''. Source: () (accessed: January 30, 2008)〕 Simmer-Brown (2001: p. 57) when conveying the ambiguity of ḍākinīs in their "worldly" and "wisdom" guises conveys a detailed narrative that provides the origin of Lawapa's name: ==Nomenclature, orthography and etymology== Alternate English orthographies are Lwabapa, Lawapa and Lvapa. 〔Simmer-Brown, Judith (2001). ''Dakini's Warm Breath: the Feminine Principle in Tibetan Buddhism''. Boston, USA: Shambhala. ISBN 1-57062-720-7 (alk. paper): p. 57; p. 311〕 An alternate English nomenclature for Lawapa is Kambala.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lawapa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
