Listen Later

Join Daniel Aitken and Ācārya Malcolm Smith as they discuss the roots of Dzogchen and the aural lineage in the Great Perfection tradition as described in Malcolm’s newest translation Yoga Of The Natural State, releasing in the winter of 2025 and available now for pre-order. In this episode of the Wisdom Podcast, recorded live as a Wisdom Dharma Chat, explore the historical transmission of Dzogchen teachings through the textual and aural lineages and the roles these play in preserving the authenticity and comprehensibility of the teachings. You won’t want to miss this illuminating conversation. 

You’ll hear Daniel and Malcolm discuss: 

  • the process of translating Longchenpa’s writings;
  • differences between ‘awareness of awareness’ and the true nature of rigpa;
  • key Dzogchen terms such as original purity (ka dag) and natural perfection (lhun grub);
  • Chogyal Namkhai Norbu and his impact on spreading Dzogchen teachings to the West;  and
  • much more!
