Practices

revealed by Jigme Lingpa
This revelation, the main practice text for the Longchen Nyingtik cycle on the yogic practice of subtle channels and winds (tsa-lung). The text explains how this practice is supreme among all perfection-stage practices, including the six yogas. The second part provides instructions on the yoga of inner heat (tummo) and on the signs and results of such practices, the ultimate result being the great exhaustion of phenomena beyond the conceptual mind.
