Translation, commentary, and annotations by Tempa Dukte Lama
Foreword by His Holiness 34th Gyalwa Menri Trizin Rinpoche
The Jang Chok ritual from the Du Tri Su cycle is a powerful skillful means to guide the consciousness of the deceased and protect it from the terror of the Bardo experiences. The Bardo is the in-between state where the consciousness has left the physical body at the moment of death and has not yet taken on a new body. Through the power of the ritual and the absorption of the practitioner, the ritual closes the doors of rebirth of the six realms of cyclic existence and protects the consciousness from wandering. The ritual offers the soul guidance for traversing the Ten Stages of Compassionate Beings and the Three Unsurpassable Spheres through which the Three Bodies of the Awakened One are attained.
This book offers the first complete English translation and transliteration of the Du Tri Su Jang Chok liturgy (with the original Tibetan included). In the first part of the book, Tempa Dukte Lama explains the different sections of the ritual and their meaning and purpose as well as how to make the required torma offerings and prepare for the ritual. The liturgy in the second part of the book is annotated throughout and images of ritual arrangements and torma offerings are included to assist practitioners in performing the ritual.
“This translation and ritual manual will be of great benefit as a practice resource for all those who want to learn and use the Du Tri Su Jang Chok ritual for the deceased. It will be most helpful to any Western practitioners.”
