Dzogchen encourages embracing our present selves without judgment, contrasting sharply with traditions focused on self-improvement and flaw correction. Lowe suggests that striving for a better life can often hinder us, leading to more problems and endless searching for happiness.

Shamatha, Vipashyana, Mahamudra, and Dzogchen32 From Shravakayana to Dzogchen, Earth & SkyThe topic of this 8-week retreat covers the broad bandwidth from shamatha to vipashyana, to Mahamudra and Dzogchen because the text Naked Awareness is the Union of Mahamudra and Dzogchen.

The Shravakayana is infact the grounding, the foundation on which you can build a skyscraper touching the sky. And the sky is Dzogchen.
In the midst of this whole range of teachings it’s very important for those who are really intuitively drawn to Dzogchen to see that all the te...2016-04-1700 min
Fall 2015 Stage of Generation72 Dzogchen Meditation and The Information-Consciousness Relationship (Fasten your Seat Belts)Alan first continues with the text (p.111-115).

Alan explains that these verses are perfect and suggests, that, if we so wish, we could recording these ourselves, in our own language and play it back so we receive the pointing out instru...2015-09-1000 min

Spring 2010 Shamatha Retreat[Extra Bonus] Culminating in the Great Perfection: The Dzogchen View (Addendum)In this morning session, Alan really woke us up (interpret that as you will) by making an addendum to this Sunday's bonus episode where we had a "speed drive" through different ways of viewing reality from the Buddhist point of view.
