Tracts of the Sun

An inspirational calendar of daily quotations selected by Naljorpa Druk-tsal and Naljorma Kha'dron from teachings given by Ngak'chang Rinpoche and Khandro Dechen. These quotations provide fresh insights into essential Vajrayana Buddhism. They range from hilarity to piercing directness. This approach is characteristic of the creative, contemporary prose and poetry for which these English Lamas are known. They are the Aro gTer Lineage Lamas and have specialised in expressing the Nyingma Inner Tantras, with an emphasis on incorporating practice in everyday life. Their enthusiasm for both the secular and religious Arts, inspired by Kyabye Dud jom Rinpoche, is central to what they teach. They address 21st Century society whilst remaining true to the ancient tradition in which they were trained by their Lamas. Interspersed in this calendar, are quotations from Kyabye Dud jom Jig drel Yeshe Dorje Rinpoche, HE Trulku Ogyen Dro dul Thrin-le Kun-kyab Rinpoche and Khar-trul Wangchuk Rig dzin Rinpoche.
