This Mind Training Combo deal includes Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche's Teachings on Lojong (Open Retreat 2003), Compassion Without Limit (Naropa, 2003) and Eight Verses on Mind Training (Treasury of Knowledge, 2014). Mind training practice is the heart essence of Mahayana practice. In Lojong, Ponlop Rinpoche teaches The Seven Points of Mind Training brought to Tibet by the Indian master Atisha and written down by Chekawa Yeshe Dorje, a Tibetan master in the Kadampa tradition. Rinpoche’s presentation is accessible and profound and includes powerful guided meditation practices. This is perhaps the clearest and most detailed teaching currently available on these classic Mahayana practices. Six talks. In Compassion Without Limit, Rinpoche shows us that truly limitless compassion for self and others is not an unattainable goal. He presents the Kadampa practice of Seven Stages of Cause and Effect. Using a gentle, easily remembered series of sending and taking (Tonglen) practices, a gradual transformation in outlook takes place naturally. Rinpoche explains the process in detail in a penetrating, humorous, and insightful manner. Includes extensive Q&A. Five Talks. The Eight Verses on Mind Training provide the essence of the Kadampa Mind Training teachings in eight verses. We aspire to positive, meaningful, and helpful relationships with family, colleagues, friends, sangha, and beyond. And yet, often our experience of these relationships is characterized by strife and difficulty. This short text provides profound instructions for working with our mind, transforming our interactions with others, and on this basis, progressing on the path to awakening. Rinpcohe's commentary playfully helps us understand the text clearly and precisely. Rinpoche practices with the group providing contemplations that bring the post-meditation mind training verses into formal practice. Five talks.
