A renowned Buddhist visionary who was recognized as a reincarnation of Tibet’s preeminent female saint, Yeshé Tsogyel, Sera Khandro Dewé Dorjé (1892–1940) was also a prolific writer with remarkable literary gifts. This book presents the unabridged translation of her extraordinary autobiography—one of only a handful of life stories written by women in Tibetan literature.Sera Khandro’s chronicle intersperses the story of her spiritual awakening with candid accounts of the difficulty, misogyny, and injustice of everyday life in the nomadic pastoral culture of eastern Tibet. Even as she enters otherworldly realms and encounters deities and spirits, she endures the sufferings typical of women’s lives in this time and place. In vivid detail, she relates prophecies and celestial visions alongside deeply human emotions like joy and sorrow, depression and rage, passionate love and fathomless grief.Brimming with spiritual insight, eloquent figurative language, and forthright storytelling, the book intermingles genres such as poetry, songs, and vernacular dialogue. It features evocative portrayals of Tibetan landscapes and culture, redolent of alpine pastures and grazing livestock, together with intricate descriptions of transcendent experiences. Sera Khandro’s autobiography is not only an invaluable resource for understanding the lives of Tibetan Buddhist women but also a beautiful and poignant work of literature.The book features forewords by Sogen Rinpoche Pema Lodoe, spiritual director of Tupten Osel Choling and holder of Sera Khandro’s spiritual lineage, and Lama Jabb, lecturer in Tibetan language at the University of Oxford.

The revelations of Düdjom Lingpa, a highly influential mystic of 19th century Tibet, translated by B. Alan Wallace. The practice of Dzogchen, the Great Perfection, is the pinnacle of the nine vehicles of practice taught in the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism. The highly influential mystic Düdjom Lingpa (1835–1904) and his disciple Sera Khandro (1892–1940), the most prolific female writer in Tibetan history, here illuminate the methods to discover our own primordial purity and abide in uncontrived awareness. Buddhahood Without Meditation: This is Düdjom Lingpa’s most widely taught visionary text. In it wisdom beings and historical figures in the Great Perfection lineage emphasize the view of cutting through (trekchö) to the original purity of pristine awareness via the four special samayas, or pledges, of the Great Perfection: nonexistence, oneness, uniform pervasiveness, and spontaneous actualization. At each stage of his spiritual progress, Düdjom Lingpa’s doubts are dispelled and his realizations enhanced by pithy advice. The Fine Path to Liberation: Sera Khandro establishes the necessary motivation and conduct for receiving teachings such as Buddhahood Without Meditation. This sublime Dharma is to be seen in the context of the five perfections of the sambhogakaya: the teacher, place, time, disciples, and Dharma are fully perfected and must not be reified as ordinary. Garland for the Delight of the Fortunate: Sera Khandro fills in the gaps of Buddhahood Without Meditation, explaining the metaphors, and spelling out the implications of the root text’s highly condensed verses. This is an essential key for unlocking Düdjom Lingpa’s profound wisdom.
