Description

Discover the direct experience of enlightenment with Roaring Silence. This practical guide to the Tibetan Buddhist tradition of Dzogchen offers meditation techniques to help you side-step intellectual processes and experience reality directly. Ngakpa Chögyam and Khandro Déchen, two experienced Vajrayana teachers, provide a pragmatic approach to this ancient practice. They begin by discussing the essential elements for embarking on this journey, including finding a qualified lama, cultivating a sense of humor, inspiration, and determination. The authors then walk you through the path of Dzogchen, from sitting meditation to direct perception of reality. Through practical exercises and guidance, Ngakpa Chögyam and Khandro Déchen help you sharpen your awareness, visualize, and investigate mental activity. Their approach is characterized by a sense of kindness and caution, reminding you to be gentle with yourself as you explore this profound practice.
