Longchen Rabjam (Longchenpa) : YOU ARE THE EYES OF THE WORLD
y Longchen Rabjam (Longchenpa), trans. by Kennard Lipman & Merrill Peterson, under the inspiration of Namkhai Norbu, a Copper Mountain Series book
Just as the images projected on television are nothing more than light, so are our experiences merely the dance of awareness.
Often we form attachments to, or feel enslaved by, these experiences. But they are only reflections. Their power fades as easily as the pictures vanish when the channel is changed, if we penetrate to the heart of reality -- the light of the natural mind within everyone.
You Are the Eyes of the World presents a method for discovering awareness everywhere, all the time. This book does not discuss how to turn ordinary life off, it does not describe how to create beautiful spiritual experiences; it shows how to live within the source of all life, the unified field where experience takes place. A breakthrough translation by Kennard Lipman and Merrill Peterson, introduced by Namkhai Norbu, author of many books on Tibetan Buddhism.
"The product of an inspired collaboration...a catching edition with Wright’s stunning photograph of Budhanath stupa lit with light offerings at dusk in the cover...It sustains...the interest of the Tibetan and other specialist owing to the magnitude of Longchen pa’s contribution to Tibetan Buddhist literature and the timely relevance of his Don khrid to a living rDzogs chen commentarial tradition."--The Tibet Journal
"...text is clear and direct, and requires relatively little background in Indian, Tibetan, or Buddhist culture to understand. It shows how to live within the source of all life, the unified field where experience takes place."-- The Beacon
Longchen Rabjam (1308-1363) was one of the most celebrated adepts of the Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhism.
Kennard Lipman, Ph.D., studied at the University of Chicago, U.C. Berkeley, and completed his doctorate with Dr. H.V. Guenther. He received teachings from masters in all four schools of Tibetan Buddhism, his principle teacher being Namkhai Norbu rinpoche.
Merrill Peterson studied at the University of Virginia and U.C. Berkeley and with masters from the Sakya, Gelug, and Nyingma traditions.
