| Abstract | Prominent in Tibetan accounts of the life of Maitri-pa is a tale of how he was expelled from the monastic university of Vikramasila by Atisa (Dipamkarasrijiiana). The story does not appear in any non-Tibetan source. Nor can any Indian or Nepalese basis be identified for the contention of some Tibetan scholars that Atisa received the text of the Mahayana-uttaratantra-sastra and/or instructions on it from Maitri-pa. The two tales are broadly contradictory, for they place the two Indian masters in opposite relationships of authority. Their use by Tibetan historians on apparently sectarian grounds calls into question the validity of Tibetan historical tradition as it bears upon the later period of Buddhism in India. Neither purported event is central to the spiritual career of either figure, and I present a study of them here so as to exclude them from a later study of the hagiography of Maitri-pa. |
