Dzogchen Cycles Yidams/Protectors

Post by Riku19 »

The Zhang Zhung Nyan Gyud is a Dzogchen cycle of teachings and as such it is primarily concerned with the practice of Atiyoga, but as most of us know there is a deity practice (Zhang Zhung Meri) associated with it. Now, my question is: is this true for the other Bon Dzocgchen cycles as well (i.e. the A-Khrid etc.)? I'm talking about yidams, protectors and general healing/longevity/proection sadhanas that are traditionally taught alongside these ati teachings. Do you know anything about it? Thanks :heart:

It could be that the actual dzogchen practice is already so powerful
and not watered and contains the real blessings and transmission
form the state of Samantabhadra. That there is no need for any
specific protector practices or even protection.

You could join online teachings and ask your self.




and lot of others....few examples....
