The Lotus Heart Essence: Avalokiteshvara’s Dzogchen
In Dzogchen, wisdom is there from the start. We unite heart and mind with the Buddha of compassion within a state of wisdom. Thanks to Rinpoche’s blessing, we are offering this for the very first time in the West. Come join us. Refresh your heart.

I.3. Precious Treasury of the Dharmadhātu

Empty essence, unceasing nature:
Nothing’s there, yet everything comes forth.
Swirl and peace dawn from the three forms, yet
Move not from the realm, true land of bliss.
