    Tai Situpa (Tibetan: ཏའི་སི་ཏུ་པ་, Wylie: ta'i si tu pa, from Chinese: 大司徒; pinyin: Dà Sītú; literally: "Grand Situ" or "Great Preceptor"[1]) is one of the oldest lineages of tulkus (reincarnated lamas) in the Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism[2] According to tradition, the Tai Situpa is an emanation of Maitreya, the bodhisattva who will become the next Buddha and who has been incarnated as numerous Indian and Tibetanyogis since the time of the historical Buddha.[2]
