Strand of Jewels: My Teachers' Essential Guidance on Dzogchen
The teachings in this book are the distillation of a lifetime’s commitment to Dzogchen realization and practice. Here, Khetsun Sangpo Rinpoche teaches from “the top of the mountain down.†That is, he offers to Western readers with varying levels of experience the peak of Dzogchen wisdom, largely from hermit masters unknown in the West. He also connects Dzogchen with early Indian Abhidharma teachings and presents the various meanings of Mahamudra (Great Seal) in the different Tibetan Buddhist traditions in order to highlight its particular meaning in Dzogchen and to show all interpretations are valuable. Above, all, Khetsun Sangpo carefully explains the absolutely crucial discriminations that practitioners must make regarding their own experience in order to get past illusions and connect to their own genuine being.
