  Sceptics with an everyday, dualistic perception of the universe will consider the 'Most Precious Teacher' (Guru Rinpoche) as the historical founder of Buddhism in Tibet who has been deified by legend, so rich is his biography in miracle and the extraordinary.

As such, he can be considered in three main ways: as a generic name for emanations of Buddha Sakyamuni, as the archetypal guru or as an historical figure.
