Yantra Yoga, the Buddhist parallel to the Hathayoga of the Hindu
tradition, is a system of practice entailing bodily movements,
breathing exercises, and visualizations. Originally transmitted by
the mahasiddhas of India and Oddiyana, its practice is nowadays
found in all schools of Tibetan Buddhism in relation to the
Anuttaratantras, more generally known under the Tibetan term
"trulkhor," whose Sanskrit equivalent is "yantra." The Union of the
Sun and Moon Yantra (Phrul 'khor nyi zla kha sbyor), orally
transmitted in Tibet in the eighth century by the great master
Padmasambhava to the Tibetan translator and Dzogchen master
Vairochana, can be considered the most ancient of all the systems
of Yantra, and its peculiarity is that it contains also numerous
positions which are also found in the classic Yoga tradition.
Chogyal Namkhai Norbu, one of the great living masters of Dzogchen
and Tantra, started transmitting this profound Yoga in the
seventies and at that time wrote this commentary, which is based on
the oral explanations of some Tibetan yogins and siddhas of the
twentieth century. All Western practitioners will benefit from the
extraordinary instructions contained in this volume.
