This book was released on 2016-12-30 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Six Yogas of Naropa (11th century C.E.), the Indian scholar and Tantric adept (mahasiddha) are renowned in Indo-Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism as a swift path to enlightenment. Naropa extracted all the essential practices from the Peerless Yoga Tantra class to create the system consisting in the Yogas of Mystic Heat (gTum Mo), Illusory Body (sGyu lus), Dream (rMi Lam), Clear Light (Od gSal), Consciousness Transference (Pho Wa), and Intermediate State (Bardo). The Three Treatises translated herein from the original Tibetan are compositions of authors belonging to sub-sects of the Kagyu lineage, themselves renown as masters of the system of the Six Yogas. This second edition contains many improvements such as a detailed table of contents, sub-headings, Sanskrit (i.e. Devanagari syllables) and diacritical marks throughout.

This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The three treatises translated from Tibetan in this volume are on the subject of the Six Yogas of Naropa, a Buddhist Vajrayana adept who flourished in India in the 10th century C.E. Naropa, most likely a native of Kashmir, transmitted the esoteric doctrines of the Six Yogas to a number of Indian and Tibetan disciples, prominent among whom are the famous Marpa the Translator, guru of the celebrated yogi Milarepa. Although the teachings of the Six Yogas are central to all four Tibetan schools, they are most foundational to the Kagyu school. The three treaties translated herein are all native Tibetan compositions by prominent scholar-adepts of the Kagyu school. They form a particular genre of Six Yogas of Naropa compositions still cherished and practiced assiduously by Tibetan yogis. Among the six yogas, the most foundational is that of gTum Mo (Skt Candali), a Buddhist version of Kundalini Yoga, deriving from the Shaiva Tantric tradition. The Buddhist Vajrayana tradition and the Shaiva Tantra traditions evolved together and exchanged tenets and practices until the decimation of Buddhism in India in the 11th century C.E. Thereafter, the practice of the Six Yogas was continued and safeguarded in Tibet, Nepal and other Himalayan regions. With the Tibet diaspora in the wake of the Chinese invasion of Tibet and the exile of H.H, Dalai Lama and many prominent Lamas, the Six Yogas of Naropa (Tib. Naro'i Chos Drug) has gained renewed popularity. The Six Yogas of Naropa and the related Six Yogas of Niguma (Naropa's sister, perhaps), represent a distillation and systematization of practices drawn from the Highest Yoga Tantra (Anuttara Yoga Tantra) class of Vajrayana teachings, often recognized as the pinnacle of Vajrayana teachings. The three Tibetan texts translated in this volume are 1) the Tibetan text of the Instructions (gdams) portion of the hagiography (rnam thar) of Naropa edited by H.V.Guenther, included in his "Life and Teachings of Naropa" (1963) as an appendix. The Tibetan title is mKhas grub mnyams-meddpal-ldan Na-ro-pa'i rnam-par thar-pa dri-med legs bsad bde-chen 'brug-sgra which guenther renders "The well-narrated immaculate life story of the incomparable sage Naropa or the voice of thunder of the Great Bliss." Since only the Instructions portion of the text is translated in this volume, the translation of the first text is simply titled "The Six Yogas of Naropa (Including the Original Instructions of Tilopa).The author of this rnam-thar is lha'i bstun-pa Rin-chen rnam-rgyalof Brag--dkar, said to be a contemporary of the renowned Mahasiddha and author gTsan-pa sMyon-pa He-ru-ka who was a disciple of Dpal Phag-mo gru-pa (1110-1170 C.E.), who was in turn a disciple of Gam-po-pa (1079-1153). On the basis of this evidence, the composition may be dated to the late 12th century. 2) The second text translated herein is the Naro'i Chos drug bsDud pa'i Zin 'Bris of Padma dKar-po (1527-1592) which I've rendered "An Original Treatise on the Epitome of the Six Yogas of Naropa." This latter text is a re-translation of the one done by lama Kazi Samdup and edited by Evanz Wentz in the volume "Tibetan Yoga and Secret Doctrines" (1935). 3) The third text of this volume is a translation of Zab Mo naro'i Chos Drug gi Nyams-len Thun Chos Bdud rtsi Nyin Khu Zes Bya Ba sGrug Karma Kam Tsang gi Don Khrid, which I've rendered "The Nectar of the Essential Practice of the Six Yogas of Naropa According to the Practical Method of the Karma Kam Tsang by the sixth Sharmapa Chos kyi dBang Phhug, Zwa-dmarIV, 1584-1615. All authors were eminently qualified to write these treatises being themselves not only accomplished scholars but also realized adepts (siddhas), masters of the Six Yogas of Naropa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first-ever extensive biography of Tibet's most famous nonsectarian Buddhist lama Known as the “king of renunciates,” Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Taye (1813–1899) forever changed the face of Buddhism through collecting, arranging, and disseminating the various lineage traditions of Tibet across sectarian lines. His extensive treasury collections of profound Buddhist teachings continue to be taught and transmitted throughout the Himalayas by all major traditions and represent the breadth and profundity of Tibetan Buddhist philosophy and practice. Jamgon Kongtrul was a polymath, dedicated retreatant, ritual expert, writer, and teacher from the eastern Tibetan kingdom of Derge. During the nineteenth century, while central Tibet experienced extreme sectarian divides, Jamgon Kongtrul, along with Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo and Chokgyur Lingpa, set about collecting, teaching, and transmitting the major practice traditions found in Tibet. Their activity—much of which did not adhere to the traditional divides of the Tibetan “schools” and included both tantric lineages coming from India as well as Tibetan treasure (terma) lineages—is one of the finest examples of Tibetan ecumenism, or Rimay, and Jamgon Kongtrul is perhaps the most famous among Tibet’s Rimay masters. This is the most accessible work available on Jamgon Kongtrul’s life, writings, and influence, written as a truly engaging historical biography. Alexander Gardner provides an intimate glimpse into the life of one of the most important Tibetan Buddhist teachers to have ever lived.

Book Synopsis The Bliss of Inner Fire by : Thubten Yeshe
Download or read book The Bliss of Inner Fire written by Thubten Yeshe and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2005-06-10 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the classic bestseller, Introduction to Tantra, Lama Yeshe offered a profound and wonderfully clear glimpse into the sophisticated practices of Tibetan Buddhist tantra. This present book, the last major teachings of this great lama, opens up the world of advanced practices for Highest Yoga Tantra initiates in much the same way his earlier work opened up the world of tantra in general. Following Je Tsongkhapa's (1357-1419 C.E.) text Having the Three Convictions, Lama Yeshe introduces the renowned Six Yogas of Naropa, focusing mainly on the first of these six, the practice of inner fire (tummo). Mastery of inner fire quickly brings the mind to its most refined and penetrating state--the experience of clear light, an extra-ordinarily powerful state of mind that is unequaled in its ability to directly realize ultimate reality. Lama Yeshe felt that twentieth-century Westerners could easily grasp the often misunderstood ideas of this esoteric tradition: "We really need tantra these days because there is a tremendous explosion of delusion and distraction.and we need the atomic energy of inner fire to blast us out of our delusion." Lama Yeshe's aim was for his students to actually taste the experience of inner fire rather than merely gain an intellectual understanding. Lama's own realization of the transformative power of these practices comes through, inspiring his students to discover for themselves their own capacity for inexhaustible bliss.
Book Synopsis Living in the Face of Death by : Glenn H. Mullin
Download or read book Living in the Face of Death written by Glenn H. Mullin and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2009-01-16 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whereas Western society views death as the last taboo, the Tibetan tradition incorporates meditation on death into everyday life. Tibetan Buddhists believe that a conscious awareness of one's own impermanence allows a person to live a happy, fulfilled life. Over the centuries, the Tibetans have developed a wide-ranging literature on death, including inspirational poetry and prose, prayers, and practical works on caring for the dying. This fascinating book presents nine short Tibetan texts. Important writings by the Second, Seventh, and Thirteenth Dalai Lamas and by Karma Lingpa, author of The Tibetan Book of the Dead, are included. It covers topics such as meditation techniques to prepare for death, inspirational accounts of the deaths of saints and yogis, and methods for training the mind in the transference of consciousness at the time of death.
Download or read book The Book of Kadam written by and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 754 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kadam school of Tibetan Buddhism emerged in the eleventh century from the teachings of the Indian master Atisa and his principal Tibetan student, Dromtonpa. Although it no longer exists as an independent school, Kadam's teachings were incorporated into the four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism and are still prized today for their unique practical application of the bodhisattva's altruistic ideal in everyday life. One of the most cherished teachings stemming from Atisa and Dromtonpa is the collection of esoteric oral transmissions enshrined in The Book of Kadam. This volume includes the core texts of the Book of Kadam, notably the twenty-three-chapter dialogue between Atisa and Dromtonpa that is woven around Atisa's Bodhisattva's Jewel Garland, as well as complementary texts that illuminate the history and practices of the Kadam tradition.
