The Lopon's interpretation of this esoteric text is the first time many of these practices have been available to the general reading public. The text is divided into four books:Preliminary Practices, the Practice of Trekcho,The Practice of Togel,and Phowa and Bardo Practices. The Preliminary Practices described in this text are dzogchen techniques that are in addition to the traditional ngon dro practices.
The Lopon and Tenzin Rinpoche have taught and will continue to teach extensively from this text. Readers should not attempt to do the practices briefly outlined in this book without instruction from a qualified teacher."
This book presents a complete Dzogchen meditation manual from the ancient religious tradition of Tibet known as Bon. The Kunzang Nying-tig by Shardza Tashi Gyaltsen is a powerful and practical instructional text which cuts to the heart of Dzogchen meditation. Dzogchen is regarded by Bonpos as the highest and most esoteric religious practice."
"Written in the style of personal instruction from Shardza to his students, the manual is supplemented with a commentary by Lopon Tenzin Namdak,who is himself an acknowledged master of Dzogchen. The translation was carried out by Lopon in the course of teaching the text to Western students at his monastery in the Kathmandu Valley.
