A description of the Tibetan Buddhist Dzogchen path of awakening, with instructions and guidance for following it.

With deep compassion, sharp observations, and arresting metaphors, the Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche explicates "The Aspiration of Samantabhadra" for both new and experienced practitioners. This Dzogchen prayer explores the different manifestations of rigpa, our basic awareness in daily life, and constitutes a set of instructions for refining the path of practice. Taken from material from a series of talks in Germany and the United States, Penetrating Wisdom includes the text of the prayer, Rinpoche's always-lively commentary, and lucid answers to questions posed by his students.

This book is a commentary on an ancient, well-known Tibetan Buddhist prayer of aspiration that expounds on the Dzogchen path to enlightenment. Containing key fundamentals about the Vajrayana path--the guru-student relationship, the role of faith in Vajrayana Buddhism, recognizing basic awareness, and the notion of reality that is beyond mental concepts--this book is a clear and accessible explication of a complex system of philosophy and meditation techniques that are central to Tibetan Buddhism.

While the author is a traditionally trained master in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, he has won great appreciation in the West for his humor, familiarity with Western culture, and his unique talent for using examples that are drawn directly from Western metropolitan lifestyles. He has lived and taught in Europe and North America for many years.

A little goes a long way
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1), Set name: Adult Mint
A mild tasting toothpaste that is very effective at both gently cleansing and gradually filling in cracks and fractures. I had a chip off of one canine that was actually starting to be painful. I have every motivation not to seek dental treatment because of special needs that require I be under general anesthesia in a hospital operating room as a high risk surgical patient. The last time I had dental work, I sprang a rare reaction, they could not use the one reversal agent every OR has to have on hand for this rare reaction. The board-certified Harvard-trained anesthesiologist had to use other means to bring me through. I no longer can travel the thousands of miles to this one specific hospital that knows my case, which is also why I was looking for some way to fill this chipped tooth on my own. I have been treating this tooth for several months by brushing everywhere but this tooth and holding the paste in the mouth for a time before rinsing out well. I have, concurrently, been using the "Shine" powder, not to clean but as a crevice filler because it strikes me as possibly too abrasive. "Shine," however, is grittier, has some interesting animal-based ingredients, and lacks the glycerin that is present in the Himalayan formula, meaning: adherence ought to be more effective without the oil slick. The non-nano "Shine" seemed to be the most helpful in the beginning of my self treatment. However as I gradually built up a protective initial layer on the tooth, this smoother Himalaya formula with the nano hydroxyapatite worked much better as a "finisher" to consolidate and maintain the tooth coating I had slowly built up. I am not claiming a permanent solution, nor am I claiming that it is possible to achieve what I have without diligence and care and real time. There is no substitute for seeing the dentist if you are in trouble. I am only reporting that this toothpaste works IF you do your twice daily maintenance work and eat carefully around a tooth that is slowly mending. The pain is now gone, the tooth surface is smooth. It feels like any other tooth in my head. Yes, this toothpaste is pricey but a tiny amount on a wetted toothbrush goes a long, long way and generates lots of foam. It does not leave a gummy residue on the rest of one's teeth like the "Shine" powder does. The taste is a mild, very smooth mint, not at all overwhelming. Excellent product.
