Ati Yoga (Tibetan Dzogchen) is the most simple, direct, and profound path to reveal the sky-like nature of our own mind, which is clear, vast, and unobstructed by the clouds of afflictive emotions. In this evening talk, Dr. Nida Chenagtsang will offer highly practical and direct instructions on how to access the Ati Yoga state in daily life and liberate the afflictive emotions. The talk will focus on the meditation manual Weapon of Light: Introduction to Ati Yoga Meditation, which features Dr. Nida’s pithy and direct teaching poem “The Weapon of Light of the Primordial Wisdom which Vanquishes the Darkness of Samsara,” and will be supplemented by oral teachings inspired by Yuthok Yonten Gonpo’s practical teachings on Ati Yoga. These teachings provide invaluable support for both beginner and advanced meditators of any lineage.
