This book is a kind of treasure trove of practical-often secret-material that every Buddhist practitioner would love to know. What really happens in initiation? How do you properly use mantras to empower practice? How can you tell when consciousness has emerged from a dying person in order to really help them? Simply not available in such concise, clear, direct terms elsewhere, this compilation of material focuses on the piercingly direct practices of Dzogchen, which encompass much of the range of Buddhist practice. Written by one of the top tier of widely respected and acknowledged masters of the tradition, sophisticated in Western psychology, this volume will be highly valued by a wide range of Buddhist practitioners.
