A Song on the View (MP3)

Description

A Song on the View was sung by the Gelug master Janggya Rolpe Dorje upon attaining the first Bhumi. In this teaching Mitra Karl Brunnhölzl teaches with precision and humor the view presented in this song. This teaching is based on Rolpe Dorje’s song together with commentary by the great Dzogchen master, Ju Mipham Rinpoche. Throughout this teaching, Mitra Brunnhölzl entertains questions about applying the ultimate view to the issues of everyday living. In answers that are clear and entertaining, he clarifies our understanding of the union of dependent origination and emptiness, and provides profound advice on using this understanding to work with samsaric suffering. Mitra Brunnhölzl’s translation of Song on the View together with the commentary by Mipham Rinpoche appears in his book Straight from the Heart. This book brings together an inspiring collection of poems, songs of realization, meditation instructions, and philosophical treatises all chosen for their power to speak directly to the student. 4 talks on 1 MP3 CD.

Features

MP3CD Recordings
MP3CDs look like ordinary CDs, but contain compressed audio files. While a regular audio CD holds a maximum of only 80 minutes of recorded audio, an identical-looking MP3CD can easily hold the audio files from an entire weekend or even week-long teaching. MP3CDs can be played in a computer and/or the audio files can be downloaded into an iPod or similar device. MP3CDs may also be played on a portable MP3CD player. Most ordinary CD players, such as the CD player in most older cars (roughly 2005 and earlier), will not play MP3CDs. Many but not all cars 2006 or later do have MP3-capable CD players. Any car or home stereo CD player that is capable of playing an MP3CD will have “MP3” or “MP3-WMA” clearly marked on the front of it.
The MP3CDs available for sale on this web site are all clearly labeled and packaged in a clear case. The audio files on them have proper ID3 tag information, which means that on a computer, iPod or similar device the audio files will display (and can be searched by) Album (Title of teaching), Song (Talk number within a teaching) and Artist (Teacher).
