so i thought the primordial state is beyond both samsara and nirvana. here it sounds otherwise. thoughts?
In a sense, samsara and nirvāna both appear for the practitioner, but not for the primordial state.

There is no delusion in your nature, delusion and the exhaustion of delusion both occur secondarily, “on top” of the nature, as Malcolm once shared Khenpo Ngachung saying.

In Dzogchen we aren’t refining our nature, the primordial state, which is already always originally pure and naturally perfected. Instead we are refining and working with our knowledge [rig pa] of our nature. Samsara and nirvāna both occur within this scope of refining our rig pa, purifying obscurations, etc.

so the decisive knowing and the primordial state are distinct.

Yes, in a sense they are distinct, because if your rigpa and your nature were identical, then your rigpa would never become marigpa.

Look like a very brief Introduction. I'll wait for the ebook.

Is it something actually written by Rinpoche, or another compilation?

I read the blurb as referring to his teachings and presentation........but that's not to say it isn't a compilation: ''These teachings, presented here by Chögyal Namkhai Norbu....''

Right, the blurb is very blurbish and gives away nothing.

Judging by the description and that it is not restricted, it looks like a short general introduction. It would be good to have some more information.

It's "a summary of all teachings Rinpoche was giving over the years, helping us to understand who we actually are and teaching us how to maintain presence and awareness in our daily life. The book also includes a section on dying as a Dzogchen practitioners, with advice on the four intermediate states." (via Norbunet).

Is the Simhamukha mantra in the tun coming from Ayu Khandro or Jigme Lingpa or...?
I have received the lung of Ayu Khandros terma but wasn't entirely sure if this is where the mantra in the tun originates.
