Description
This is a recording of the teachings The Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche gave at the first Treasury of Knowledge retreat in Texas. These talks are based on the eighth section of The Treasury of Knowledge by Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye. This section is an examination of the training in excellent meditative absorption. In these talks, Rinpoche begins by providing a brief introduction to the Hinayana and Mahayana paths. He then presents the causes of tranquility, tranquility meditation methods, the defects or impediments to tranquility practice and associated remedies, and the stages of tranquility. Rinpoche then presents three varieties of insight. These talks also include teachings on the Bodhisattva Vow, including the forms of compassion, the causes of Bodhicitta, the conditions necessary to support generating Bodhicitta, the meaning of Bodhicitta, and the commitments of Bodhicitta. Rinpoche concludes these talks by providing a short introduction to the five stages of the Bodhisattva path and the six perfections. Altogether, these talks provide an excellent overview of the Mahayana Path of practice. These twelve talks are translated by Lama Yeshe Gyamtso. This fully Tibetan version of these teachings includes all of DPR's Tibetan teaching.
