Illusory Advice
by Ngakma Nor’dzin & Ngakpa ’ö-Dzin
Summary
Illusory Advice is an anthology of lively email discussions between two Western-born Buddhist teachers and their students. The questions and replies cover a wide range of topics—to which the Buddhist view is applied with directness, subtlety, and humour—such as: family life; interpersonal difficulties; and, the student-teacher relationship. Ngakma Nor’dzin and Ngakpa ’ö-Dzin are a married teaching-couple of the Aro gTér Lineage of the Nyingma Tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. They are ordained representatives of the ancient non-monastic tradition of Vajrayana, in which every-day life circumstances and individual-personality are embraced as the path of transformation.
Quotations
These gDams ngag offer a glimpse into the mechanics of the teacher–student relationship. At times supportive, at times challenging, these conversations illustrate Ngakma Nor’dzin and Ngakpa ’ö-Dzin’s down–to–earth and direct teaching style.
– Ngakpa Zhal’mèd Yé–rig, from the editor’s preface
