Hello,
I’m looking for any transcribed teachings on Ghantapadas 5 deity Cakrasamvara. Teachings by Garchen Rinpoche get extra points. Me and my partner are looking for something we can read, not watch. Any leads?
Garchen Cakrasamvara Transcriptions?

Re: Garchen Cakrasamvara Transcriptions?
Thank you my friend. It really seems like this is my best bet. Although, knowing Rinpoche’s disciples, there has to be someone who has transcribed some of his demchok teachings. Anyone know a guy?

Maybe this one can work for you.
1 Myriad dharmas are only mind.
Mind is unobtainable.
What is there to seek?
2 If the Buddha-Nature is seen,
there will be no seeing of a nature in any thing.
3 Neither cultivation nor seated meditation —
this is the pure Chan of Tathagata.
4 With sudden enlightenment to Tathagata Chan,
the six paramitas and myriad means
are complete within that essence.
1 Huangbo, T2012Ap381c1 2 Nirvana Sutra, T374p521b3; tr. Yamamoto 3 Mazu, X1321p3b23; tr. J. Jia 4 Yongjia, T2014p395c14; tr. from "The Sword of Wisdom"

Unfortunately that teaching is not yet complete, they only have part one right now. Hopefully, part two will be available later this year.

Re: Garchen Cakrasamvara Transcriptions?
I am thoroughly surprised at how difficult it is to find these transcriptions. I will try and send an email to GBI and see if they know any more than we do.
