Mipham's Sword of Wisdom

Its core subject is the Buddhist view of the two truths—the relative truth of conventional appearances and the absolute truth of emptiness and buddha nature—and how the two truths are inseparable.

The Seven Nails
The realization of Dzogchen is not achieved through studying, analysis, and intellectual understanding only. According to the teaching, the perfect meaning of Dzogchen comes from introduction, meditation, devotion, and receiving the lineage blessings. With these methods, we can discover the Great Perfection within ourselves because self-discovery is the Dzogchen way. If you follow any methods other than those, you are looking in the wrong direction.At the same time, we should also engage in good activities that will benefit others, as well as ourselves. In the Buddha's teaching, the two aspects of the path are known as "accumulating the two merits:" (1) the accumulation merit of compassionat...
The Dark Red Amulet
The Dark Red Amulet presents the Vajrayana practice of Vajrakilaya according to the oral transmission lineage of the great seventeenth-century treasure-revealer Tsasum Lingpa. Vajrakilaya embodies the enlightened activity of all the buddhas that subjugates delusion and negativity in order to clear obstacles to spiritual practice. The essential purpose of Vajrakilaya practice is to discover the absolute vajra nature that will transform every duality hindrance into clear wisdom and compassion. In this text, the renowned scholars and meditation masters Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche and Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche present the history of this lineage and the miraculous story of how Tsasum Lingpa revealed this terma teaching. Their line-by-line commentary on the short and condensed sadhanas provides an invaluable guide for practitioners to combine the skillful means of compassion and wisdom that are the foundation of Tibetan Buddhism.
Discovering Infinite Freedom
This prayer explains how to restrengthen our goodness qualities of bodhichitta and non-grasping, and how to see everything as the display of the original nature. This is the essence teaching of the Buddha, which was repeated by Guru Padmasambhava and continually carried by so many great practitioners. This practice and aspiration prayer is an esoteric teaching in the form of a prayer and aspiration. For centuries the voices of the hermitage yogis and yoginis reciting this prayer have echoed throughout the valleys and mountains of Tibet and the Himalayas. For generations, it has been used by all Nyingma practitioners.
Liberating Duality with Wisdom Display
Guru Padmasambhava is generally referred to as Guru Rinpoche, which means "precious master." Guru Rinpoche is a buddha, a fully awakened one. He did not become enlightened gradually, or start practicing the teachings of Buddha Shakyamuni and eventually gain enlightenment. Guru Rinpoche incarnated as a totally enlightened being. Through his form, primordial wisdom manifests in the world to benefit all sentient beings.Guru Rinpoche is a direct reincarnation of Buddha Shakyamuni. Buddha Shakyamuni said, "Eight years after my mahaparinirvana, a remarkable being with the name Padmasambhava will appear in the center of a lotus and reveal the highest teaching concerning the ultimate state of the tr...
The Nature of Mind
From the author of Words of My Perfect Teacher comes this commentary on the teachings of Aro Yeshe Jungne—an insightful introduction to Dzogchen meditation, the Nyingma tradition, and the basics of Buddhism Patrul Rinpoche, the beloved nineteenth-century master best known for Words of My Perfect Teacher, collected the teachings of the tenth-century adept Aro Yeshe Jungne and synthesized them into the short text translated here as Clear Elucidation of True Nature. How to put these essential teachings into practice is the subject of the lively commentary by the two Khenpo brothers, the late Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche and Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche. The Dzogchen meditation instructions of the Aro lineage are divided into nine sets, or nine levels, with specific instructions for each on how to identify the nature of the mind, how to abide in it as a way of life, and how to liberate turbulent thoughts and emotions when they arise. The commentary enfolds this instruction into a broad general teaching suitable for beginners that serves as an introduction to Dzogchen meditation, to the Nyingma tradition, and to basic Buddhism.
Supreme Wisdom
"Yeshe Lama means "supreme wisdom." There is nothing higher than the primordial wisdom inherent within all sentient beings, which is pointed out directly by this teaching without any intellectualization or analysis. By this practice, people with devotion, joyful effort, and commitment discover their nature within a single lifetime, or even within three years, transforming and transcending every dogma of samsara into the original nature beyond acceptance and rejection."
