Progressive Stages of Meditation on Emptiness is a series of meditation practices on Emptiness, a particular aspect of the Buddha's teachings. The idea is that by beginning with one's first rather coarse commonsense understanding, one progresses through increasingly subtle and more refined stages until one arrives at complete and perfect understanding. Each stage in the process prepares the mind for the next in so far as each step is fully integrated into one's understanding through the meditation process.

Great Dharma, invaluable description of path

Amazing
Reviewed: 09-30-24
Rinpkche’s teachings are amazing and this book is no different. Although his teachings and other books (by different translators) usually use clear and simply words, the translator/author here chooses words and phrases at times that are unnecessary difficult to simply understand. This is not a comment on the content, just the way it has been presented in English. It sounds like a philosophical argument where points are won for using obscure words and sterile terminology, as opposed to the simplicity that he elsewhere delivers so I think this layer has been added by the translator. If you can get over the difficult nature of the delivery its contents are well worth the effort. A true step on the path to understanding the nature of mind

Around 1:10 in the death meditation chapter it referenced the Tibetan book of the dead as a different text to what we are studying.
Isn’t this a commentary of the book of the dead?
It’s a good info though I’m plastics it’s an ai text. The author does not exist to google. There are a few reasons I’m sure of this. It referencing the book it’s commenting on as an external and different book was my aha! moment. Still a good overview
