The Wish-Fulfilling Jewel

 
Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche (Author) Konchog Tenzin (Translator)
Synopsis The guru is like a wish-fulfilling jewel granting all the qualities of realization, a father and mother giving their love equally to all sentient beings, a great river of compassion, a mountain rising above worldly concerns unshaken by the winds of emotion, and a great cloud with rain to soothe the torments of the passions. In brief, he is the equal of all the buddhas. To make any connection with him, whether through seeing him, hearing his voice, remembering him, or being touched by his hand, will lead us toward liberation. To have full confidence in him is the sure way to progress toward enlightenment. The warmth of his wisdom and compassion will melt the ore of our being and release the gold of the Buddha-nature within. In the tibetan Buddhist tradition, devotion to the spiritual master and complete confidence in him are considered to be indispensable in the attainment of enlightenment. Based on the teachings of the great eighteenth-century saint and visionary Rigdzin Jigme Lingpa, the instructions of Dilgo Khyentse in this book focus on the devotional practices of Guru Yoga, “merging with the Mind of the Guru.” His Holiness Dilgo Khyentse rinpoche was a highly revered meditation master and scholar of the Nyingma lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. He is also the author of Heart Treasure of the Enlightened Ones.

About the author

Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

Kyabje Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, whose remarkable life came to an end in September, 1991, was one of the foremost poets, scholars, philosophers and meditation masters of the Mahayana, Mahamudra and Great Perfection traditions of Vajrayana Buddhism. He was highly respected by thousands of students in Tibet and throughout the world. The text he presents here is the Seven Point Mind training, brought to Tibet by teh Indian master Atisha. This teahing is the very core of the entire practice of Tibetan Buddhism. It condenses the compassionate path to Buddhahood into practical instructions which make use of all the circumstances of everyday life. Khyentse Rinpoche gave this commentary in the Dordogne, France, during his last visit to the West. He speaks frankly from his heaert, drawing on his own life long experience. The fact that Rinpoche has departed from this world adds much poignancy to his words, which many of his students regard as his parting gift.
