Mahamudra Lineage Prayer (PDF)

Mahamudra Lineage Prayer: A Guide to Practice (Book) 1

Thrangu Rinpoche recites The Kagyu Lineage Prayer (Tib. Dorje Chang Tungma) every single time that he gives a Buddhist teaching. He does because this prayer has immense blessings, and it settles the mind into relating to the Dharma because it outlines the whole Mahamudra path in less than a dozen verses. 

Namo Buddha Publications has collected several of Thrangu Rinpoche’s teachings in which he used the Kagyu Lineage Prayer to teach Mahamudra meditation into one book. This 154-page book published by Snow Lion Publications besides having the Lineage Prayer and five original line drawings of the lineage holders, covers each of the verses of the lineage prayer in detail including practical and insightful teachings on the creation of the Kagyu lineage, the four common, the four special preliminaries, Shamatha meditation, Vipashyana meditation, and conduct.
