Heart Essence of the Vast Expanse: Foundational Practices and the Transmission of the Longchen Nyingthig

Foreword by: Adzom Paylo

Paperback

Price: $29.95

Overview

A beautiful, evocative, and eminently useful array of texts sharing the foundational practices from Jigme Lingpa’s Heart Essence transmission.

These foundational practices have for over three centuries been one of the most widely practiced and beloved gateways to Dzogchen in Tibet. Like most Tibetan practices, these are chanted in solitary practice or in groups, their words supporting the vision, emotion, and understanding being cultivated. This compilation of texts includes the story, history, music, and commentaries to help practitioners more fully understand the elements of the practice. A link to downloadable audio of the chants in English is included, so that practitioners can absorb the meaning while also following along with the chants written in English and Tibetan.
