Not that I've ever seen... The famous ones are the Guru yogas of Karma Pakshi and Mikyo Dorje... Also the 16th Karmapa has a Sadhana he composed himself... There is apparently a Guru yoga of the 15th Karmapa, Khakyab Dorje , although I've never actually seen it. The present Karmapa composed a Guru yoga for the 1st Karmapa , Dusum Khyenpa... On the occasion of Karmapa 900.

The only Guru yoga I have specifically heard of in direct relation to Rangjung Dorje is linked to his 'Karma Nyingthig' Terma.... Which is a Guru yoga of Vimalamitra.

There is a Guru Yoga of the Third Karmapa called Zabdön Nyingtik by Dzongsar Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö.

Thanks! I'll check it out... I'm also sure I heard about a short Guru yoga by DKCL regarding Karma Pakshi.... I'll have a look.

Do you want to practice it? Is the 3rd Karmapa more important for you than the other ones?
I'm just curious and would like to understand why you ask this. :smile:

Best wishes, ayu

Hi Ayu,

no i don't search for a practice but i'm a bit confused about
how much possibilities for meditations there are and how to differentiate
them in terms of relevance and importance. I simply don't have any idea
what to do after ngöndro...

Best wishes
Chris

Hey Chris, don't worry.
This is the prototypical question for the most-used response on any Buddhist forum: Ask your teacher!
:smile:

Seriously, though....your teacher will confer with you when you "finish ngondro," and I'm sure there will be some new practice for you....
དམ་པའི་དོན་ནི་ཤེས་རབ་ཆེ་བ་དང་།
རྟོག་གེའི་ཡུལ་མིན་བླ་མའི་བྱིན་རླབས་དང་།
སྐལ་ལྡན་ལས་འཕྲོ་ཅན་གྱིས་རྟོགས་པ་སྟེ།
དེ་ནི་ཤེས་རབ་ལ་ནི་ལོ་རྟོག་སེལ།།


"Absolute Truth is not an object of analytical discourse or great discriminating wisdom,
It is realized through the blessing grace of the Guru and fortunate Karmic potential.
Like this, mistaken ideas of discriminating wisdom are clarified."
