 | | Dzogchen Lineage also refers to the specific transmission of the Buddha's teachings known in Tibetan as "Dzogchen," or "Great Perfection," This is a living lineage that exists in this world, having been passed from master to disciple from the time of the Buddha to the present. | | | In its broadest sense, Dzogchen Lineage refers to the limitless expanse and continuous wisdom of Vast Awakening, the Buddha Nature which is the natural enlightened lineage of wisdom and compassion that exists in the mind of every single sentient being. | | | The Dzogchen Buddha Institute is pleased to announce that this weekend, on Saturday, November 19 and Sunday, November 20, Dzogchen Khenpo Choga Rinpoche will hold two interactive webcasts so that he can teach and answer questions for his students around the world. |

| | Dzogchen |
| | In the Aro gTér lineage, the Dzogchen sem-dé teachings are comprised of the four naljors, the four ting-ngé-dzin, and trül-khor naljor [yantra yoga]. | | | In Dzogchen the word has a meaning closer to its Tibetan etymology: 'nal' derives from 'nalwa,' which means 'the natural state', and 'jor' derives from 'jorpa' which means 'to remain' or 'remaining'. | | | Vairochana was one of the twenty-five disciples of Padmasambhava, and is considered to have brought the sem-dé and long-dé teachings to Tibet. |

| | Spiritual Beliefs--Dzogchen, Hinduism, Christianity and Judaism |
| | Dzogchen (Tibetan Buddhist) practices of dream yoga and clear light are discussed. | | | BACK TO Practically speaking, Dzogchen is essentially a rather esoteric form of Tibetan Buddhism. | | | The desires are not purified in Dzogchen, they are simply allowed to run their natural course and "self-liberate." Unlike in the other Buddhist schools, there is nothing to reject or transform in Dzogchen, no formal vows or commitments required of the practitioner. |

| | Dzogchen |
| | Dzogchen is often regarded as the name of a specific school of Vajrayana Buddhism, yet is, quite 'simply', the Tibetan name for the highest stage of the Inner Tantras as defined by the Nyingmapa, and has much in common with the Mahamudra and certain Lamdre teachings of other Tibetan schools. | | | Dzogchen is often compared to Chinese Ch'an Buddhism and has even been called "Tibetan Zen". | | | Another point of view that sounds very much alike in Dzogchen and Zen, is the fact that both do not cease to declare that they are not a "religion" or "faith", but simply a way of knowledge. |

| | The Berzin Archives - Introduction to Dzogchen |
| | Dzogchen, on the other hand, not only explicitly teaches that all qualities, not only compassion, are complete in rigpa, but entails extensive sutra and tantra meditation practice for cultivating compassion. | | | Dzogchen meditation, however, does not entail even direct focus on the self-voidness of rigpa. | | | Thus, when dzogchen texts speak in terms of the natural state beyond karma, beyond the categories of constructive and destructive, they are speaking from the resultant viewpoint of a Buddha. |

| | dzogchen teachings |
| | In Tibet, Dzogchen has existed and still lives in both the Buddhist tradition and that of Bon, the indigenous pre-Buddhist religion. | | | In that period, which saw the first diffusion of Buddhism in Tibet and the large-scale translation of Buddhist scriptures from Sanskrit into Tibetan, the texts of Dzogchen were also translated, in great measure from the language of Oddiyana. | | | Today, Dzogchen - as taught above all in the Nyingmapa lineage of Tibetan Buddhism and the Bon tradition, but known and practiced in other schools as well - has begun to spread in the west, thanks to Tibetan masters who, after leaving their country, teach tirelessly in Europe, the Americas, and Australia. |

| | Dzogchen is the highest spiritual tradition in Bon. | | | We have seen that Dzogchen is common to Bon and Nyingmapa Buddhism, and that these two spiritual traditions also have in common a nine fold division of their Ways or modes of religions observance. | | | The Bonpos maintain that, as Buddha Sakyamuni was a disciple of Tonpa Shenrab Miwoche, all Buddhist teachings, whether originating in India or elsewhere, are in fact teachings of everlasting Bon. |
