GURU YOGA According to the Preliminary Practice of Longchen Nyingtikby Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, trans. by Gelong Konchog Tenzin (Matthieu Ricard)Why is the practice guru yoga, (union with the nature of the guru) so important? Because, with the help of the outer teacher, the inner teacher (the true nature of our own mind) is discovered. This particular guru yoga is called The Wish-fulfilling Jewel and is the outer practice of the guru from the Longchen Nyingtik revelation of Rigdzin Jikme Lingpa. It was during a summer retreat in France in 1984 that Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche gave teachings on this text. This is a new commentary and not a re-edit of teachings in the book The Wish-fulfilling Jewel. "Based on wonderful oral teachings...beautiful text...an inspiring guide."--The Indian International Journal of Buddhist Studies "This excellent work presents a succinct overview of the heart of the Vajrayana Buddhist tradition in Tibet."--Values and Visions Reviews 1559391219, 9781559391214 | |
