Description

Machik's Complete Explanation Clarifying the Meaning of Chod is a foundational text in Tibetan Buddhism that offers a practical approach to overcoming fear, anger, and negativity. Written by Machik Lapdrön, a renowned female saint and yogini from 11th-12th century Tibet, this book presents a unique system for transforming negative emotions into love and compassion. The Mahamudra Chöd, as outlined in the book, is a tantric practice that cuts through ego-fixation by invoking and nurturing the very "demons" we fear. This expanded edition includes Machik's earliest known teaching, The Great Bundle of Precepts on Severance (Chöd), which reveals the true inspiration for Chöd lies in the perfection of wisdom. A commentary by Rangjung Dorje, the Third Karmapa, beautifully clarifies the teachings of this pithy set of instructions. This edition provides a comprehensive understanding of Machik's approach to spiritual growth and development.
