Book Summary
Mahamudra, or the Great Seal, refers to a path to enlightenment taught by the Buddha and transmitted through the spiritual lineage of Tilopa, Naropa, Marpa, and Milarepa. Gampopa, a disciple of Milarepa who lived in the eleventh century, brought together these teachings of the Buddha into one five-fold path consisting of an enlightened motivation, deity yoga, guru yoga, mahamudra and proper dedication. His main disciple, Pakmo Druba, gave this approach the name "The Profound Five-fold Path of Mahamudra." This text is a manual of practical instruction for students who are,or are thinking about, practising the path of Mahamudra.
