description: "Nāropā was an Indian Buddhist Mahasiddha. He was the disciple of Tilopa and brother, or some sources say partner and pupil, of Niguma. As an Indian Mahasiddha, Naropa's instructions inform Vajrayana, particularly his six yogas of Naropa relevant to the completion stage of anuttarayogatantra.\nHe was also one of the \"gatekeepers\" of Vikramashila monastery and was also associated with Nalanda monastery where he rose to the position of abbot."
