Guru yoga

Post by Bruce »

Just out of curiosity, what is the difference between Guru Yoga from Collection of Seven Treasures (Ter Kha Dun Dü) and Dudjom Rigdzin Düpa Dechen Namrol?

Seven Treasuries is a sort of compilation sadhana combining elements from several different GR sadhanas from different terma.
"All phenomena of samsara depend on the mind, so when the essence of mind is purified, samsara is purified. Since the phenomena of nirvana depend on the pristine consciousness of vidyā, because one remains in the immediacy of vidyā, buddhahood arises on its own. All critical points are summarized with those two." - Longchenpa

They are both outer guru Yoga practices as far as I know. Just different litergies.
