Synopsis: A classic commentary on the preliminary practices of the Longchen Nyintig - one of the best known cycles of teachings and a spiritual treasure of the Nyingma tradition. Patrul Rinpoche makes the technicalities of his subject accessible through a wealth of stories and references to everyday life. His style of mixing broad colloquialisms, stringent irony and poetry has all the life and atmosphere of an oral teaching, making this a quintesstial introduction to Tibetan Buddhist practice.
A favourite work of Tibetans and recommended by the Dalai Lama and other senior Buddhist teachers, this practical guide to inner transformation introduces the fundamental spiritual practices common to all Tibetan Buddhist traditions. "The Words of My Perfect Teacher sets out the paths of the four main schools of Tibetan Buddhism without any conflict between them... For all teachings on all practices, whether preliminaries or main, this text is indispensible...that followers of the Dharma teach or listen to this text is of great importance." Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. |
