Abhidharmasamuccaya By: Traleg Rinpoche

Our Price: $20.00 Members Price: $18.00

We will be exploring the Abhidharmasamuccaya, a text that belongs to the later development of Buddhism. Early Buddhism is known as Theravadin or Hinayana Buddhism. Later Buddhism is known as Mahayana Buddhism. It has two schools: Madhyamika, the school of the middle way, and Yogacara, the practitioners of yoga. Yoga, in this case, has very little to do with physical dexterity, with how you can twist your arms or fiddle your toes. It is very much related with learning how to meditate properly and relate to one's own mind, with trying to understand the sort of mental states we go through in meditation and so on. The Abhidharmasamuccaya presents that kind of overall structure, in the fullest sense.

A Commentary on the Seven Points of Mind Training
The Seven Points of Mind Training is one of the most popular and widely practiced trainings in all traditions of Tibetan Buddhism. This practice comes from the Indian tradition of Kadampa monks. In the Kagyu lineage it was transmitted through Gampopa, who was a Kadampa monk before becoming the principal disciple of Milarepa and who then went on to found the Kagyu School in Tibet.

Essence of Buddhism: An Introduction to Its Philosophy and Practice By: Traleg Rinpoche

Here is a comprehensive overview of the Buddhist path from the perspective of the three vehicles of Tibetan Buddhism - the Hinayana, Mahayana, and Vajrayana. While these vehicles are usually presented as a historical development, they are equated here with the attitudes that individuals bring to their Buddhist practice. Basic to them all, however, is the need to understand our own immediate condition. The primary tool for achieving this is meditation, and The Essence of Buddhism serves as a handbook for the various meditative approaches of Buddhist practice.

Influence of Yogacara on Tantra By: Traleg Rinpoche

Our Price: $20.00 Members Price: $18.00

|
|

Excerpt from Talk 1. We are going to be talking about Yogacara philosophy's relationship to Buddhist tantra. People have generally ignored how Yogacara philosophy influenced Buddhist tantra and its development. It is not discussed explicitly, even though it's quite patent in the writings of Buddhist tantra. You could trace different notions discussed in the tantric literatures back to Yogacara philosophy.

Meditation Through the Three Yanas By: Traleg Rinpoche
|
Our Price: $20.00 Members Price: $18.00
|
|
|

The three yanas are known as Hinayana, Mahayana and Vajrayana. They are not discrete and independent schools, as much as individual phases of spiritual growth in each person. It is a general understanding of some people that yanas are confined to geographical situations, that the Mahayana and Vajrayana are practiced by Thais and Singhalese, or something of that nature. This is not true of Tibetan Buddhism, which consists of all three yanas.

Foreword by the Ninth Kyabgon Traleg Rinpoche:
Gampopa, the peerless physician from Dakpo, who was repeatedly predicted
and praised by the Buddha, caused the teachings of the lineage of accomplishment
to become widespread in the Himalayan land of Tibet. All his disciples
gave rise to the sudden realization of Mahamudra. Among them were five hundred
great meditators, of whom the
greatest and most famous were the three Khampas.
One of these three was the Khampa
Saltong Shogom, who achieved the
greatest mastery of the channels and
winds through the practice of chandali.
His rebirth was Nyima Tashi the Birth-
Recollector, who devoted his life to silent
practice in sealed retreat. He saw the
faces of yidams, realized Mahamudra,and thereafter recounted his previous
births and prophesied his future ones. He
sang vajra songs that are still warm with his blessing.This brief account of his recollections,
prophecies of future births, and songs
has now been translated into English and
published. It is certain that disciples who
study it will plant the seed of liberation
in their continuums. I therefore rejoice in
and am grateful for its publication.

Pith Instr. of CoEmerged Wisdom, Profound Essence of the Ocean of Certainty By: Traleg Rinpoche

|

The realization of impermanence and the inevitability of death have acted as the motivating factor for one to realize the depth of suffering of samsara. Therefore, one has abandoned all concerns with temporal matters, but has given one's thoughts to the welfare of all sentient beings who are one's own mother and father. For their benefit, one would like to attain enlightenment. Furthermore, such an individual may want to achieve enlightenment in one lifetime with one body through use of the effective methods of Vajrayana." from Transcript
