PELTAN, Václav
This thesis deals with the Indian master Padmasambhava also known as Guru Rinpoche. In the 8th century he came to Tibet at the invitation of King Thisong Decän. He had the role of demons tamer. Thus he helped to establish Buddhism in this country. The first part is devoted to his life surrounded with many legends which contain very different information. The second part presents his teaching based on the Indian Vajrayana. Since his activities were very influential and he reached great fame, he has been portrayed a lot mainly in Tibet. Therefore, the last part is devoted to his iconography, especially the eight iconographic forms of Padmasambhava.
