Available for the first time in English, Buddhahood in This Life presents the Great Commentary of Vimalamitra--one of the earliest and most influential texts in the Dzogchen tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. It explores the theory and practice of the Great Perfection tradition in detail, shows how Dzogchen meditation relates to the entirety of the Buddhist path, and outlines how we can understand buddhahood--and even achieve it in our lifetime. This essential text includes topics such as: How delusion arises; The pathway of pristine consciousness; How buddhahood is present in the body and more. Translator Malcolm Smith includes an overview, analysis and clarification for all topics. Buddhahood in This Life covers fine details of Dzogchen meditation, including profound 'secret instructions' rarely discussed in most meditation manuals. This text is essential for any serious student of the Great Perfection"--$cProvided by publisher. 330 $a"A translation of an important Tibetan Buddhist text related to the Dzogchen practice of the Nyingma school"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aRdzogs-chen$vEarly works to 1800 615 0$aRdzogs-chen 676 $a294.3 686 $aREL007050$aREL007030$aREL007020$2bisacsh 700 $aVimalamitra$factive 8th century,$0665118 702 $aSmith$b Malcolm$c(Buddhism practitioner), 702 $aRinpoche$b Cho?kyi Nyima 702 $aTweed$b Michael 702 $aManell$b Osa Karen 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155026903321 996 $aBuddhahood in this life$92889877 997 $aUNINA
