## Description

Maya Yoga is the title of Keith Dowman’s translation of Finding Comfort and Ease in Enchantment composed by the inimitable Longchen Rabjampa. In the Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhism this text is considered second to none in its power to evoke the nature of the nondual reality of the Dzogchen view. With poetic mastery Longchenpa provides the precepts that can instantly illuminate the buddha-reality that is our ordinary everyday experience. He asserts that we are presently under the spell of magical illusion and that by recognizing it, we are instantaneously released from a conceptual cage into an enchanting reality which is pure pleasure itself. That reality is maya, apparent yet absent, and the recognition of it in the state of natural relaxation is maya yoga. In this renowned atiyoga manual, we find the key to the natural mystical state that Dzogchen, the Great Perfection, constantly evokes.This is the 2014 American Edition, comprising a improved second edition of the work. Longchen Rabjampa (1308-1363) was the greatest of Tibet’s celebrated mystical poets and sages. The Trilogy of Finding Comfort and Ease is his most renowned work.Keith Dowman is a peripatetic scholar, translator, teacher and yogi in the Dzogchen tradition.

Review: Clear and Concise! - Keith Dowman has written another beautiful and concise book about the art of the ultimate deconstruction (Dzogchen). It is radical ,intelligent, poetic and clear! How can the human beeing, that was obliged to use his natural intelligence in a practical way to form a complex net of knowledge that serves him to survive and "prosper", discover his way out of this structural cage? Dzogchen hypothesizes that the REAL Intelligence is something that exists independent of us as the very taste of life and space. Mind and language is a game of endless dissection and reification. Emile Benveniste pointed out that : " It is in and through language that humans constitute themselves as subjects". If we start to glimpse that we are inadvertedly caught in that highly complex net of concepts (which are nothing else than practical and unconscious instructions on how to engage with the world), the spell can be broken. If we start to understand our own suffering and the cause of that suffering (our own bubble) we have the "open mind attitude" to see whether such a preverbal and pre-personnel Intelligence exists. That is where the anti-technique of Dzogchen come in. In the words of Keith: "This maya (illusion) of our ordinary experience rests upon the structure that our intellect imposes. This is a diverse and complex system of concepts and beliefs that not only determines the quality and nature of our experience but also of the natural - seemingly external,world." (page 19) "We begin in the heat of delirious attachment to our egoistic selves, and merely through recognition of our deluded condition, chilled out in the birthless and deathless space of reality, we find respite and release in the magical display of our everyday life." (page 17) This space of ease and enchantment opens up to the persons who managed to release themselves from the illusion and mandate of an inplacable and goal-oriented ego. That process of discovering our own limits is of course a very humiliating and painfull passage but nevertheless the "price of entry". In Dzogchen we learn to surf and release the perceptions before the onslaught of the conceptions. ( The american logician and philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce was aware of that early preverbal phase and called it "fistness". He discribes this pre-reflective stage of experience as immediate, direct, chaotic and luminous. In Pierce's words: " Another example of firstness is experiencing the absolute present directly (if that were ever possible!). It is a kind of unmediated meditative state without unity and without parts, it just "is.") Learning to dissolve "ourselves' in that constant and present encounter we are escpaing the contaminated maya and opening us up for the immaculate maya. May all beeings be happy!
Review: Shake out your bugs! - Chogyam Trungpa and Thinley Norbu are exceptional teachers because, among other things, their command of English is exhilarating. Similarly, Keith Dowman's command of Longchenpa's ideas and ability to "translate" that into a highly dynamic and contemporary English is unique. Not only is his rendering of Longchenpa's text extraordinary, but his Introduction is full of many, many insights into Buddhist thought which hit home simply by virtue of a word or phrase. Concepts (or non-concepts) that I thought I fully understood had the bugs shook out of them like an old rug on a Spring day. This is the third Dowman translation I've read, and in harmony with the sublime Longchenpa, it is the best of the best.

Along with B. Alan Wallace and John Myrdhin Reynolds, I’ve found Keith Dowman’s translations and commentaries to be top of the line. For anyone interested in my recommended books (Dzogchen and other spiritual gems), please click on my Amazon reviewer name: PW108. Additionally, for erudite, thoughtful, and well-written analysis of many Dzogchen tomes, I recommend to everyone here that they avail themselves of the comments from the Amazon reviewers going by the names, “Book Drawn” and “applewood.” Given the many wonderful reviews of theirs that assisted me with my purchases, anyone looking into these types of spiritual texts would do well to read their posts. My thanks to both these fine gentlemen!
