“The Cuckoo of Rigpa (Rig pa’i khu byug)"

An Ancient Dunhuang Manuscript

September 28, on Saturday,   5.45 – 6.45 p.m. CET - ( GMT + 2)

with Adriano Clemente and Fabian Sanders

In this book, the Dunhuang commentary is followed by the Author’s annotational commentary elucidating the most important points.

The Cuckoo of Rigpa (Rig pa’i khu byug), or Six Vajra Verses, is known to be one of the first five translations through which the great Tibetan translator Vairocana (eighth century) introduced the Dzogchen scriptures from Oḍḍiyāna. Although its essence is contained in only six lines, it unmistakably expresses the principles of the base, path, and fruit of Dzogchen in their entirety. In the Dunhuang manuscript the six verses are followed by a commentary, possibly the work of Vairocana himself, that explains the meaning of each verse with utmost clarity, including in relation to specific points of the view and practice of the Vajrayāna path of transformation.

The Author: Atiyoga Dzogchen Master Namkhai Norbu (1938-2018)

Born in East Tibet, he was invited to Italy in 1960 where, until 1992, he taught Tibetan language and literature at the University of Naples L’Orientale. In the 70’s he began to teach Yantra Yoga and subsequently the true knowledge of Dzogchen, or Atiyoga, to a growing number of students all over the world. It was with this first group of students that the Dzogchen Community began.

The quintessential purpose of his teachings is to discover our limitations and to overcome them by relaxing in our real condition.
