You are welcome. I'm a bit swamped with things to do right now, falling way behind on projects. I'll try to come back to it, but not right away.
In the meantime, Dzogchen is about the Nature of Mind. Anything else is mind. If the author is talking about the Nature of Mind, then it would be very helpful. If it goes in some other direction, then I would be concerned about the knowledge of the author, as well as possible problems that could come of this in your Spiritual Practice.
Books that have helped me immensely are 'The Crystal and the Way of Light' by Chogyal Namkhai Norbu, and 'Quintessential Dzogchen' by Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche.
i ordered the books and had to smile reading the subtitle :confusion dawns as wisdom;)
after lots of confusion for weeks on end i was immidiately propelled to look at the non dual aspect of this imagined self,which seems so ungraspable till its revealed ,to see who we truly are and who we are not,
it may be just a glimpse at reality ,but then if you get this,it feels like coming home
Thanks Bob!
i recently found these texts, delving into dzogchen,would you evaluate them as of help?
