Guru Yoga by Dilgo Khyentse
Why is the practice guru yoga (union with the nature of the guru) so important? Because with the help of the outer teacher, the inner teacher (the true nature of our own mind) is discovered. This particular guru yoga is called "The Wish-fulfilling Jewel," and it is the outer practice of the guru from the Longchen Nyingtik revelation of Rigdzin Jigme Lingpa. It was during a summer retreat in France in 1984 that Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche gave teachings on this text.This is a new commentary and not a re-edit of teachings in the book The Wish-fulfilling Jewel.
DILGO KHYENTSE RINPOCHE (1910-1991), a major holder of the Nyingma lineage, was a highly talented meditation teacher, scholar, and poet. His great depth of realization enabled him to be a source of loving-kindness, knowledge, and compassion for everybody who came into contact with him. Khyentse Rinpoche, a devout follower of the nonsectarian Rime movement, was revered by all schools of Tibetan Buddhism and mentored many notable teachers, including His Holiness the Dalai Lama. He worked diligently to preserve and promote Buddhist teachings by giving transmissions and instructions to thousands of individuals over the world, printing key scriptures, and constructing monasteries and stupas.
