Publisher's summary

Things are not what they seem to be. Nor are they otherwise. (Lama Surya Das)

You don’t need to spend a lifetime purifying and perfecting yourself in order to touch the bliss of enlightenment. Your essential state of being is already one of pure awareness and incorruptible, innate wakefulness. The question is, how can you access this awakened state? How can you free your luminous true nature?

Directly experience your primordial true self with Dzogchen meditation

One of Tibetan Buddhism’s most guarded and revered secret teachings, Dzogchen offers a swift and direct path for touching upon your essential nature and scaling the pinnacle of enlightenment in this lifetime. In the West, few understand this path as deeply as American teacher Lama Surya Das, and in Dzogchen Meditation Training, Surya Das draws on his nearly 50 years of experience to present an immersive training in the art and practice of Dzogchen.

Also known as the Great Perfection, Dzogchen is grounded in wisdom and compassion. In this six-part series, Lama Surya Das takes you on a journey home to your primordial state of being, the true self that is pure awareness. In this practice-oriented training, you’ll awaken your natural radiance in a way that encompasses - rather than denies - the world and all it means to be fully human. An advanced program that is accessible to everyone, Dzogchen Meditation Training presents a powerful, in-depth series of meditations and inquiries for coming into deeper communion with all of life and uncovering the treasure trove inherent in your authentic radiant nature.

A Jewel

Ahhh I loved this. After listening to Sam Harris’ Waking Up, I wanted to explore Dzogchen more and this was perfect. I feel like this was the closest thing to having an actual direct teaching interaction with a Dzogchen master. Deep bow of gratitude to Lama Surya Das. In addition to deeply authentic and enlightening it also has lots of LSD’s characteristic humor which is so joyful. Emaho!

Superb

Excellent overview, enjoyable, and free of getting bogged down into Buddhist terminology and history. With a light touch and not intellectualized, Lama Surya Das kindly, enthusiastically shares the spirit of the view with insight and compassion. After reading books on Dzogchen and Mahamudra over the last twenty years, this provided a transmission that reading has not provided me. So thankful to have been gifted with this graceful, expert guidance.

One word A M A Z I N G!!!

You know when some people really know what they are talking about?
Well Lama Surya Das certaily know what he is talking about.
However instead of manking a big deal out of the whole awakening deal, he makes it quite simple.
He has a lot of energy and that should strike most listeners as very strange way for a master meditator to talk.
But his message is very deep indeed.
This is certainly the kind of book to listen many times, so you can get the whole message

Precious Priceless Dzogchen Teachings

This is absolutely priceless. Lama Surya Das takes the penthouse of all teachings and makes them understandable for anyone. He is teaching and transmitting even when using humor. Highest recommendations.

Coolest Buddhist Ever

Lama Surya Das is just the most down-to-earth guy, with sharp wit and goofy humor. If you like a bit of fun with your meditation, this is your monk! Lighten up! Awaken your inner Buddha! Be you, duh.
