<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The Mahamudra path of direct perception is the pre-eminent method of the Dakpo Kagyu tradition. This definitive manual systematically explains its approach to meditation, complete with definitions, pointing-out instructions, and advice for the many pitfalls and errors that beset practitioners. Central to these errors is our failure to acknowledge the difference between understanding and experience, and our tendency to fixate on meditative experiences and mistake them for realization. This translation conveys the freshness and immediacy of these instructions. Belonging to the generation of teachers to first bring Tibetan Buddhism across cultures, Traleg Kyabgon (1955-2012) presents these Mahamudra instructions in a direct, relaxed, and intimate style.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"[Kyabgon] was able to teach westerners in English in a way that is rare and important.<i> Moonbeams of Mahamudra</i> . . . is one of the most important texts on Mahamudra meditation." --Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche, author, <i>Essentials of Mahamudra</i><br><br>"A beautiful, profound, exquisite exposition of the consummate Buddhist path. . . .
