In this illuminating conversation, Hareesh and Ācārya Malcolm Smith trace the philosophical and experiential meeting points between Tantra and Dzogchen, while honoring their distinct lineages. The discussion touches on the origins of Dzogchen, the role of direct recognition in awakening, the tension between conceptual purification and non-conceptual realization, and how both traditions articulate the play of emptiness and manifestation. Moving beyond comparison, the dialogue reveals a shared spirit of inquiry that transcends dogma—where luminous awareness recognizes itself through diverse expressions of wisdom.
