Chögyal Namkhai Norbu demonstrates in this book that our natural state has been perfect from the very beginning. We simply need to awaken again and then remain in our true nature. Through understanding and practice, we can rediscover the effortless knowledge of the inherently perfect state, which lies beyond our habitual suffering and confusion. Thus, we enter the uninterrupted flow of contemplation, completely relaxed yet fully aware in all our activities. Rinpoche first clearly explains the teachings of the "Great Perfection" Dzogchen and then reveals in a simple and clear manner what practice according to Dzogchen means.
