The revelations of Düdjom Lingpa, a highly influential mystic of 19th century Tibet, translated by B. Alan Wallace.

The practice of Dzogchen, the Great Perfection, is the pinnacle of the nine vehicles of practice taught in the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism. The highly influential mystic Düdjom Lingpa (1835–1904) and his disciple Sera Khandro (1892–1940), the most prolific female writer in Tibetan history, here illuminate the methods to discover our own primordial purity and abide in uncontrived awareness.

Buddhahood Without Meditation: This is Düdjom Lingpa’s most widely taught visionary text. In it wisdom beings and historical figures in the Great Perfection lineage emphasize the view of cutting through (trekchö) to the original purity of pristine awareness via the four special samayas, or pledges, of the Great Perfection: nonexistence, oneness, uniform pervasiveness, and spontaneous actualization. At each stage of his spiritual progress, Düdjom Lingpa’s doubts are dispelled and his realizations enhanced by pithy advice.

The Fine Path to Liberation: Sera Khandro establishes the necessary motivation and conduct for receiving teachings such as Buddhahood Without Meditation. This sublime Dharma is to be seen in the context of the five perfections of the sambhogakaya: the teacher, place, time, disciples, and Dharma are fully perfected and must not be reified as ordinary.

Garland for the Delight of the Fortunate: Sera Khandro fills in the gaps of Buddhahood Without Meditation, explaining the metaphors, and spelling out the implications of the root text’s highly condensed verses. This is an essential key for unlocking Düdjom Lingpa’s profound wisdom.

The some of the most essential teachings in the universe

June 9, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

What an incredible treasure of profound teachings. I had the precious and rare karmic opportunity to recieve the transmission for these teaching that make the reading and practices more powerful but even just to read such instructions and to be interested says enough about your own ripening and accumulated virtuous karmas. Please consider and realize that you have the most sublime and absolutely essential teaching available in the entire universe right here and now. Alan Wallace is one such being who shares these treasures of the Dharma, many blessings to him and to all sentient beings to awaken to their true nature in this and every moment. E Ma Ho

I knew I should buy this book, because Amazon let me look at length into it to read and see if it resonated. For practicing (Tibetan) Buddhists it seems to me to be a window into deeper understandings.
