Overview
Six-session guru yoga is a succinct but comprehensive daily practice that supports practitioners in keeping the commitments of anuttarayoga tantra, or highest yoga tantra: the three sets of vows (those of individual liberation, of the bodhisattva, and of tantra) and the pledges of the five buddha families. In less than thirty short verses, the root text encompasses the breadth of these requirements.
Originally composed by Panchen Losang Chokyi Gyaltsen, the fourth Panchen Lama, the root text was then polished by the incredibly influential Geluk lama Phabongkha Dechen Nyingpo (1878–1941). Choden Rinpoche was his direct disciple, and his extensive commentary on his teacher’s text forms the heart of this book.
This is supplemented with supportive materials such as excerpts from commentaries by Akhu Sherap Gyatso (1803–75) and Khenchen Namkha Tenkyong (1799–?), an oral commentary by Khen Rinpoche Geshe Gyalten, rich explanations of the vows, illuminating commentaries on the eight-line praises specifically, metered translations of the texts to support recitation, and much more, making this a truly invaluable resource for the anuttarayoga practitioner.
