Gampopa combined the teachings of Milarepa with the monastic discipline of the Kadampa, resulting in a distinctive fusion that served as the basis for the Kagyu school. Tibetan Buddhism was profoundly influenced by his foundational writings, such as \”The Jewel Ornament of Liberation,\” and his students, who included the first Karmapa.
