-- Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche
Vajrayana Buddhism differs from other branches of Buddhism in
providing an accelerated path to enlightenment based on Dzogchen
principles. The word "dzogchen, "translated variously as Great
Perfection and Great Completeness, conveys the idea that our nature
as intrinsic awareness has many qualities that make it "perfect":
indestructibility, incorruptible purity, non-discriminating
openness, flawless clarity, profound simplicity, all-pervading
presence, and attitude of equality toward all beings. The path to
connecting to these qualities was once secretly held and privately
transmitted; "The Great Gate: A Guidebook to the Guru's Heart
Practice "makes the Vajrayana path and techniques available to
contemporary seekers.
Drawing on the work of four renowned Tibetan masters, "The Great
Gate "compiles concise instructions on Dzogchen's foundational
practices, which comprise a powerful method for turning the mind
toward the Dharma and opening to the Dzogchen perspective. This
revised edition features a new translation and an extensive
commentary by Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche.
