FANTASTIC TREATMENT OF LUCIDITY AND DZOGCHEN! November 28, 2008
The_Mage_Lestat
While I have little to add to the glowingly positive reviews offered here, I believe it is important to strongly ratify them. Among the scores of volumes purporting to treat this difficult and esoteric subject, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche's book stands head-and-shoulders above the rest. Skillfully weaving his remarkably crystal-clear, straightforward explication of Dzogchen into the pragmatic threads of Dream Yoga method, he has created perhaps the single most informative volume to date on the subject. This book is not only mandatory for anyone seriously interested in the practical aspects of reaching and maintaining dream-state lucidity but also a striking contribution to the English literature on authentic Dzogchen. _The Tibetan Yogas of Dream and Sleep_ is a profound and classic work that must be read - and re-read many times - to be fully appreciated. The author's students are privileged indeed!

Buy this book immediately if you have a sincere interest in dream practices. The information is appropriate for the beginner as well as the advanced yogi. Don't waste one third of your life in the sleep of ignorance. Make it the fertile pure land it is when seen clearly.

Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche presents Tibetan dream yoga in full detail, and most importantly, fully contextualizes its practice in the Dzogchen spiritual tradition. As I slowly worked my way through this illuminating book it increasingly dawned on me that this work was not only the clearest practical manual on dream yoga ever penned, but that it ranks as one of the most enlightening spiritual treatises I have ever encountered. The author starts by outlining the conceptual foundations of Dzogchen teachings as related to dream yoga, then presents preliminary practices necessary for developing the "mental muscles" needed for genuine engagement in the rigors of dream and sleep yoga. Then comes the meat of the text, where Tenzin Wangyal elucidates all the elements for the complete practice of these esoteric yogas. He repeatedly stresses that the ultimate aim must be a consistent abiding in clear, non-dual awareness, or "rigpa"--throughout waking, dreaming, sleeping, and ultimately in dying (bardo). As heavy as this sounds, the author actually carries it all out with the light touch of a true master. He gently leads the reader into a realm of wondrous mystery...

Very hip writing about PREPARING FOR DEATH... Amazing material being able to see life as a dream and hence waking up in your dreams to transcend death, and the subject of a new Hollywood big budget sci fi film, CONVERGENCE, by a director named Wake.
Simple and beautiful. Achieves what Casteneda makes complicated. But we know this one is real.
