Mahamudra

How to Discover Our True Nature

Resumen del Editor

Relish these direct, experiential meditation instructions from the author of the bestselling Introduction to Tantra.

Lama Yeshe tells us that mahamudra is “the universal reality of emptiness, of nonduality” and its unique characteristic is its emphasis on meditation: “With mahamudra meditation there is no doctrine, no theology, no philosophy, no God, no Buddha. Mahamudra is only experience.”

He relies on the First Panchen Lama’s well-known Root Text of Genden Mahamudra, which in a few short pages provides the pith instructions for first overcoming distraction and resting in meditative stillness on the clarity of one’s own mind, and then, with subtle awareness, penetrating its ultimate nature, its emptiness.

As always, Lama Yeshe’s words are direct, funny, and incredibly encouraging. He gets us to go beyond ego’s addiction to a limited sense of self and to taste the lightness and expansiveness of our own true nature.

Gratitude

I appreciate this text on so many levels. I have listened 2x and will again.

Thank you 🙏🏻

No Ryan, please don't (kill yourself) 🙏🏻. etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etcetera.

Superb! An Inspiring, beautiful set of dharma teachings on Mahamudra

While not a beginner buddhist (gelugpa tradition) book, like most of the very best dharma retreats, the teachings in this book do have something for early stage students as well as students with many years of practice and experience meditating. This is a “I’ve listened to this many times” audio book, as the narration and content are first rate, and like all of the great teachers, Lama Yeshe completes this with some very inspiring words for all of his students.

Clear and simple

I’ve read this book twice and plan on reading it several more times before the end of 2023. The book gives very clear and simple explanations on Mahamudra and how to engage in simple meditation techniques.

I would recommend having a teacher and an understanding of Lam Rim before attempting the meditation practices in this book. Since this is highest Tantra Yoga, an initiation by qualified tantric teacher should also be given.

What can be said?

I bow down. Beautiful. Wisdom in its purest. I am blessed to have heard this

Illuminating

You must read listen to this book multiple time, The narration took one listen to be appreciated, then you wouldn’t want a different narrator. The book is full of content, every word had value. The narrator brings it home in a very direct and concise form.
Worth listening to multiple times.

Good book. Rotten narration

Very disappointed. Was difficult to get through because of the narrator’s voice and clear detachment from the material.

Excellent

One of the most understandable renditions of an extremely difficult topic. I found it recondite to say the least. I believe I can help me a long ways on the path that I’m going. I am thankful that I was led to it.

Very helpful to understand Mahamudra

Its a simple yet profound. First time I listen a full book by Lama Yeshe and now I want to listen to all of them. He has a very simple way to explain deep concepts to the western mind. And what was best is that it is read by Ven Robina.

Fantastic insight shared

What a great listening. With detailed description of meditation. Gives great insight into absolute truth. Highly recommended
