Dzokchen by B Alan Wallace

Pith Instructions for Realizing the Great Perfection, from One of the Greatest Tibetan Yogis of the Twentieth Century, H. H. Dudjom Rinpoche.

In the concise yet comprehensive practice manual entitled>The Illumination of Primordial Consciousness, the great twentieth-century Tibetan Nyingma master Dudjom Rinpoche lays out a sequential path to spiritual freedom according to the teachings of the Great Perfection (Dzokchen): First, we refine our awareness by training in meditative quiescence (shamatha) and then proceed to the cultivation of contemplative insight (vipashyana), by which our mind's basic nature of luminosity and emptiness is revealed. Then, having recognized that the ordinary, deluded mind is actually without any intrinsic essence, we are primed to cut through this conditioned mind into unborn, timeless pristine awareness, which has never been contaminated by mental afflictions or other obscurations. Finally, we realize that our own awareness has never been other than the dharmakaya, the mind of a buddha, and perfect enlightenment is realized spontaneously and effortlessly.

Beloved teacher and renowned scholar Lama B. Alan Wallace guides the reader through Dudjom Rinpoche's remarkable text, sharing insights gained over years of study and practice. He provides line-by-line commentary, enhanced with teachings from other revered Dzokchen masters such as Padmasambhava, Dudjom Lingpa, and Gyatrul Rinpoche. Also included are a set of fifteen guided meditations, with links to audio tracks of Lama Alan giving the instructions himself.
