The Treasury of Basic Space, The Choying Dzod (chos dbyings rin po che’i mdzod), is the quintessential Dzogchen text written by the great fourteenth center Dzogchen master, Longchenpa. It refers to cho ying, the expanse of reality and pure experience of meaningfulness as the revelation of the ground of being.
Offered by Khenpo Yeshi and Dr. Pema Khandro for the first time through the Buddhist Studies Institute, you can experience and learn from the manual for meditation and liberation, which is also the text that one reads to a dying person to introduce them to the nature of mind at death.
Read during dying, The Treasury of Basic Space offers the crucial support at the most important time, by guiding the dying person to realize the nature of mind. Indeed, The Treasury of Basic Space has been read at the time of death of many great Dzogchen masters.
The Treasury of Basic Space details the elements of breakthrough meditation (trek cho), instructions which cut through misunderstandings of emptiness and point to the vivid wakefulness of sublime knowing.
