Lopon Tenzin Namdak: Bonpo Dzogchen Teachings

I’ve recently come across a book called “Bonpo Dzogchen Teachings” by Lopon Tenzin Namdak , having only just started it I don’t know how useful it’s likely to be, but it’s been very interesting reading so far. So far, it’s got a lot of interesting stuff on Bon and Buddhism, and it seems like a very practical collection of material overall with emphasis on the Bon and Dzogchen models. There’s an interesting section on “The Attaining of Buddhahood “ in Hinyana, Mahayana, Sutra, Tantra and Dzogchen which is well worth a read.

If anyone wants a copy, drop me a PM with your email and I’ll send you it, it’s a 12MB PDF; no idea about copyright or anything, I downloaded it through a torrent so I’ll spread it in the spirit of the Dharma.

I’ll post a separate thread about a rather interesting line I’ve just come across...

This is a great site to find freely available books

http://buddhisttorrents.blogspot.com.au/?view=classic

also if you google for "dzogchen collection torrent" there is a collection you can download with about 20 bon and dzogchen books and research papers available. When I get home from work I will chase up the link

cheers
Jeff

Dear Friends, I would advise against posting your emails on somewhere that can be seen by anyone like this.
There are many bots that crawl the web looking for emails they can sell to spam advertising companies.

If you do need to post your email, do so in a way unrecognizable to a machine, an example would be:
"my Email" "my domain com"
A bot would only be able to recognize something like this if it already knew this pattern.
But since the email was already used for its purposes, maybe it should be better to edit the post and replace it with [removed by user] or something like that

Great idea, John and thanks for pointing this out.

I don't have admin capabilities but, if it suits the others who've posted their e-mail addresses, I could delete the posts? If one of the site admins gets the chance, perhaps they could edit the previous posts to remove the emails if that'd be a better idea?

In future, if anyone wants me to send them this then drop me a line on "hypenapungra g mail com"; I'm not bothered about bots or 419 scammers, both are easily dealt with but I'd rather minimize the chances of others being hit if it can be avoided.
