Summary

Rounding off this series on the Four Yogas of Mahamudra, Lamas Yeshe & Zopa describe how the Mahamudra attainments of one-pointedness, nonconceptuality, one taste, and nonmeditation can inform and guide our shamatha meditation practice here and now, whatever our level of experience. View our latest newsletter at https://prajnafire.substack.com/p/embodying-mind?r=1i7u42 Mahamudra, the signature practice of the Kagyu lineage, is known for its spare, direct, and swift approach. Yet this clarity and simplicity can bring new direction and vivacity to the seminal practice of shamatha, in which all Buddhist spiritual experience and realization is grounded. Contemplate quotes about the Four Yogas and follow a guided meditation to connect with the essence of all experience, inseparable from experience and experiencer. PRAJNA SPARKS follows the lunar calendar. Look for new episodes on the new moons.
