The Stages of A-Khrid Meditation

Description

The Stages of A-Khrid Meditation presents one tradition of the system of meditation known as “The Great Perfection” (rdzogs pa chen po), in the form of a systematic and practical guide written to assist those noble beings who set themselves the task of leading others to enlightenment through the practice of the Great Perfection.

The A-Khrid (“the Teachings regarding the Ultimate Origin-(A)”) is believed to have a historical source in the great lama called rMe’u dGongs-mdzod (1038-1096). The text here is a condensed version of his original composition, written by Bru-sgom rGyal gyung-drung (1242-1296).
