دانلود کتاب A Trackless Path: A Commentary on the Great Completion (Dzogchen) Teaching of Jigmé Lingpa’s Revelations of Ever-present Good

The first section of A Trackless Path is a thoughtful introduction to the text and McLeod's relationship with it; the second is his beautiful and evocative translation of an ancient poem on dzogchen; the third and main part of the book is his thoughtful commentary through which he illuminates the meaning of the poem, verse by verse. McLeod is clearly writing (and writing clearly) for the seeker in today's world who is called to pursue non-dual, non-conceptual awareness. McLeod's lucid practice-oriented commentary is enriched by the seamless interweaving of experiences from his own spiritual journey. What emerges is a picture of the direct and personal ways McLeod found to meet the challenges he encountered on his path. This is a book for the practitioner of any contemplative tradition-Buddhism, Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Taoism, Judaism or non-dual awareness. "McLeod's careful wise scholarship and craftsmanship, and his determined, almost heroic, point of view on practice, make this book a thrilling read." --Norman Fischer, author of What is Zen: Plain Talk for a Beginner's Mind "A work of exceptional beauty, elegance, and spiritual depth... the unparalleled teachings of Dzogchen are illuminated from within the practice and experience of one of our most gifted translators and meditation teachers." --Reggie Ray, author of Touching Enlightenment: Finding Realization in the Body "Through this extraordinary text and Ken McLeod's brilliant translation and commentary, the nature of trekchö clearly shines through... pointing clearly and unequivocally at its instantaneous spontaneity..." --Keith Dowman, author of Spaciousness, the radical dzogchen of the vajra-heart His skillful and deep commentaries offer a new paradigm of interpretation. He approaches the mystical songs of great masters as poetic expressions of inner transformation rather than philosophical presentations of noble truths ... --Sylvia Wetzel, author Women and Buddhism.
