THE GELUG/KAGYU TRADITION OF MAHAMUDRA

by H. H. the Dalai Lama and Alexander Berzin.

Within the Gelug tradition, mahamudra teachings are exemplified in the First Panchen Lama's Root Text for the Precious Gelug/Kagyü Tradition of Mahamudra. The work presented here contains two brilliant commentaries by the Dalai Lama. Berzin's overview of mahamudra discusses the relation of mind, appearances and reality and offers practical techniques for overcoming problems due to excessive worry, anxiety and disturbing thought. This treasury of practical instruction contains extensive teachings on the nature of mind, the development of shamata, sutra and tantra levels of mahamudra, and the compatibility of Dzogchen and anuttarayoga tantra.
