Flight of the Garuda, The Dzogchen Tradition of Tibetan Buddhism
By: Dowman, Keith
|
Our Price: $16.95
Members Price: $15.26

As the mystical teachings of Dzogchen are becoming more widely taught in the West, those who wish to gain further insight into these clear and powerful practices will find Flight of the Garuda to be essential.
The book conveys the heart advice of one of the most beloved masters of Tibet. The itinerant yogi Shabkar communicates the essence of the Dzogchen teachings through songs both poetic and poignant.
Along with Shabkar's songs, Keith Dowman has translated four other seminal Dzogchen texts, including one by Patrul Rinpoche that is new to this edition. Dzogchen practice brings us into direct communion with the most subtle nature of experience, the unity of samsara and nirvana as experienced within our own consciousness, bringing the meditator face to face with the nature of reality. Buddhists of all stripes, including practitioners of Zen and Vipassana, will find ample sustenance in these lyrical explications of the Dzogchen view.

Based on the teachings of the Buddha, this book offers the most compelling and impassioned indictment of meat-eating to be found in Tibetan literature and is pertinent to anyone interested in vegetarianism as a moral or spiritual issue. The Buddha's teachings show how destructive habits can be examined and transformed gradually from within. The aim is not to repress one's desire for meat and animal products by force of will, but to develop heartfelt compassion and sensitivity to the suffering of animals, so that the desire to exploit and feed on them naturally dissolves.

The Life of Shabkar has long been recognized by Tibetans as one of the master works of their religious heritage. Following his inspired youth and early training in his native province of Amdo under the guidance of several extraordinary Buddhist masters, Shabkar Tsogdruk Rangdrol devoted himself to many years of meditation in solitary retreat. With determination and courage, he mastered the highest and most esoteric practices of the Tibetan tradition of the Great Perfection. He then wandered far and wide over the Himalayan region expressing his realization.
His autobiography vividly reflects the values and visionary imagery of Tibetan Buddhism as well as the social and cultural life of early nineteenth-century Tibet.

Shabkar Tsogdruk Rangdrol (1781-1851) lived at a time in Tibetan history when many spiritual lineages were on the verge of extinction.

The present catalogue offers a structured list and description of the 14 Volume complete edition of the master's Collected Writings prepared by Shechen Publications. Shabkar has often been compared with Milarepa not only for his way of life and his spiritual accomplishments, but also for his amazing ability to improvise songs. His rich and varied style ranks among the clearest and most beautiful in Tibetan literature.
