Summary

Autobiographical accounts of meetings with visionary beings together with the spiritual advice they imparted, from the thirteenth-century Bönpo scripture-revealer Shense Lhaje。

Visionary Encounters presents four chapters from the collection known as The Golden Teaching of Trenpa Namkha, a cycle of Dzogchen teachings recovered or rediscovered by the thirteenth-century master Shense Lhaje, an important scripture-revealer in the Bön tradition。 These chapters include unusual autobiographical detail, providing a window into the daily life of this "wandering beggar," as he calls himself, as well as a record of the extraordinary messages he received from visionary beings known as knowledge-holders and dakinis。 Includes an introduction that places the work in its historical and literary context。

A treasureAn easy read, but colorful, sparks imagination, and offers tons of guidance for the Dzogchen path。 This is the chronicle of events that happened to the enlightened human, the author, and all of the knowledge holders he met and offered their wisdom all the way。 Very helpful!
