A Nyingma Ngondro, but useful for all those doing Ngondro
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Basically this is a commentary on a Nyingma Ngondro , and specifically that done within the lineage of Dudjom Rinpoche. The teachings on this are from Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche. That being said, it has excellent insights for anyone doing Ngondro practice within any of the other of the four major sects of Vajrayana Buddhism. It is very readable and clear and offers insights and helpful suggestions that lead to a deeper understanding of what is involved when one is doing prostrations or Vajrasattva practice or any of the other branchs of doing Ngondro. Now that there are many Westerners doing this practice, this work should prove useful for them, and also for anyone who is curious about what Ngondro is, or where it fits within the schema of Tibetan Buddhism. Additonally it also serves as a good introductory guide to what Ngondro is, and for those aware of Chagdud Tulkus work in the West, it is a way to easily connect with what he has to say about doing Ngondro practice. It is also a good work for Libraries to collect , as it is very accessible, and would compliment collections that already have a number of works on Tibetan Buddhism.
