In case anyone is interested, I just found that "The Union Of Mahamudra and Dzogchen: A Commentary on The Quintessence of Spiritual Practice, The Direct Instructions of the Great Compassionate One" by Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche and Erik Pema Kunsang has been published again in is available on Amazon - link. It's a very nice book with the root text and commentary by Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche. Since I'm interested in having the text for every teaching I received, I just bought a copy (previously I only had a PDF scan), so now there are only 4 left.
Although many individuals in this age appear to be merely indulging their worldy desires, one does not have the capacity to judge them, so it is best to train in pure vision.

So now you know what a commentary means, are you saying his commentary is nothing new and a complete copy of a previous one by someone else?
Hey, you are back! Still different texts on the same subject username.

"The direct, hard to understand, subtle field of knowing, the Great Path, is non-conceptual (akalpana), and entirely beyond the grasp of intellectual thought. Divorced from verbal ideation, it is difficult to point out and as difficult to enquire into. It cannot be communicated through words and [therefore] is not within the scope of the neophyte (adikarmika). Nevertheless the path is to be approached through studying scriptures (sutra) of the World-Teacher and following the personal instructions (upadesa) of one's Guru-ji."

Uhm, no, he isn't. Check the dates.
I resurrected this topic so I don't create a new one for just one post.
