Description
This book presents a comprehensive explanation of the extraordinary Palyul tradition wherein the Mahamudra (“Great Seal”) and Dzogchen (“Great Perfection”) traditions and the kama and terma lineages are joined together.
A Garland of Immortal Wish-Fulfilling Trees focuses on one of the six Great Secret Nyingmapa mother monasteries in Tibet and its extraordinary tradition: Palyul Namgyal Changchub Chöling. Chapters form a hagiographic portrayal of the lineage’s throne holders while also depicting its history and continued preservation. While mainly focusing on the succession of the tradition’s leaders, Tsering Lama Jampal Zangpo also reveals the source of its dharma lineage found in kama, terma, and pure vision. This book also contains:
- An introduction to the Palyul tradition by the Third Drubwang Pedma Norbu Rinpoche
- Background and details surrounding the Palyul monastery in Tibet
- Biographies of Karma Chagmed Rinpoche and Vidyadhara Migyur Dorje
- Appendices detailing the Nyingma tradition and the major and minor branch monasteries of the mother Palyul
TSERING LAMA was ordained at the Mugsang monastery before traveling to Palyul and receiving transmissions from the great Khenpo Ngaga Rinpoche, the second Drubwang Pedma Norbu Rinpoche, the fourth Karma Kuchen Rinpoche, the second Chögtrul Rinpoche, and many others. After completing all stages of inner practice, he received the title of Vajra Acharya (tantric master). During his lifetime, he taught writing, poetry, astrology, and grammar and studied all of the important tantras. Before dying at the age of eighty-four, he wrote a large volume of poetry praising gurus of the Nyingmapa tradition.US
