Description: "In this classic 17th-century presentation of the union of Mahamudra and Dzogchen, Karma Chagme, one of the great patriarchs of both of these lineages of Tibetan Buddhism, begins with an overview of the spirit of awakening and the nature of actions and their ethical consequences.

Then, Karma Chagme gives instructions on the two phases of Dzogchen practice - the Breakthrough and the Leap-over - followed by an accessible introduction to the practice of the transference of consciousness at the time of death." "The concluding chapters of this treatise present a detailed analysis of Mahamudra meditation in relation to Dzogchen practice."--BOOK JACKET.
