The Cuckoo of Rigpa
An Ancient Dunhuang Manuscript. Rig pa’i khu byug
https://shangshungpublications.com/en/explore/new/product/e-book-the-cuckoo-of-rigpa-epub-mobi
The Cuckoo of Rigpa (Rig pa’i khu byug), or Six Vajra Verses, is known to be one of the first five translations through which the great Tibetan translator Vairocana (eighth century) introduced the Dzogchen scriptures from Oḍḍiyāna.
Although its essence is contained in only six lines, it unmistakably expresses the principles of the base, path, and fruit of Dzogchen in their entirety.

KHAITA Joyful Dances, ‘Tibetanness’ and Wellbeing Through Tibetan Modern Songs and Dance https://shangshungpublications.com/en/explore/new/product/khaita-joyful2
From 2011 until his death in 2018, Namkhai Norbu collected around 400 modern Tibetan songs and approved 240 dances to them as part of the Khaita archive. While some of the dances are based on the original choreographies of the music videos by the Tibetan artists, some have been purposefully created for Khaita under the consideration of the meaning of the Tibetan song texts.

Il cuculo della presenza istantanea (in coedizione con Om Edizioni)
L’insegnamento Dzogchen è una conoscenza viva trasmessa da un maestro, che la incarna, ai suoi studenti, che la devono mettere in pratica: non è un insegnamento riservato agli asceti spirituali, ma una via che può essere di giovamento a tutti coloro che vogliono vivere meglio. Può essere molto utile a persone di profonda fede, ma anche a coloro che dichiarano di non credere a niente e sono convinti che non esista nulla dopo la morte; anche per loro la vita può essere più serena grazie a questo insegnamento.
L’Upadesha sul comportamento totale dello stesso sapore
https://shangshungpublications.com/it/prodotti/product/upadesha-sul-comportamento
Il presente volume contiene il commentario orale a L’upadesha sul comportamento totale dello stesso sapore, appartenente al ciclo di insegnamenti del Longsal, riscoperti e insegnati da Chögyal Namkhai Norbu. Il libro si basa sulla trascrizione del ritiro tenuto a Tokyo, Giappone, dall’1 al 5 giugno 2012, con note aggiuntive tratte dal ritiro tenuto a Tashigar Nord, Venezuela, dal 15 al 16 maggio 2004.
Scoprire uno per scoprire tutto. La pratica dello stato primordiale
https://shangshungpublications.com/it/prodotti/product/scoprire-tutto
Tra i testi tibetani appartenenti alla serie dello Dzogchen Semde, si considera che quelli più antichi siano le prime cinque traduzioni di Vairochana, ovvero Rigpai Khujug, Tsalchen Trugpa, Khyungchen Dingwa, Dola Serzhün, Minubpai Gyaltsen (chiamato anche Dorje Sempa Namkha Che) più il Mejung.
In tempi relativamente recenti, nel 1971, è stato scoperto un altro libro che contiene le istruzioni essenziali sul modo di applicare la pratica nel puro stile Dzogchen in accordo con i sei testi citati. L’autore di questo scritto non è noto, ma può essere attribuito a Nubchen Sangye Yeshe. In questo ritiro, Chögyal Namkhai Norbu spiega le istruzioni su come integrare e applicare la conoscenza del Changchubsen Gompa Dola Serzhün scritto da Mañjushrimitra.
I preliminari della via dell’Ati
Commenti del Longsal volume sesto
https://www.shangshungpublications.com/it/prodotti/product/p9788878347007
I preliminari della via dell’Ati (A ti lam gyi sngon ‘gro) è una speciale pratica di purificazione di Vajrasattva ricevuta attraverso vari sogni tra il 2003 e il 2004 e legata alla trasmissione che l’Autore ricevette dal suo Guru radice, Changchub Dorje (Byang chub rdo rje, 1863-1963).
Upcoming books
In English
- The Vajra Dance of the Space (Khalongdorjeikar)
- Union of Mahamudra and Dzogchen
- Illuminating the Gateway to the Teaching. From Sūtra and Tantra to Dzogchen
The Lamp Illuminating the Gateway to the Teaching (Bstan pa la ’jug pa’i sgo snang gsal sgron me zhes bya ba) was conceived by the Author, the late Dzogchen master Chögyal Namkhai Norbu (1938–2018), as a book that can provide in-depth insight into the nature and characteristics of the Buddhist teachings in their totality, introducing and displaying the various steps of the path much in the way as presented in the Lamrim, or “stages of the path,” literary genre.
Largely extracted from The Precious Vase: Instructions on the Base of Santi Maha Sangha, the textbook of the foundation level of the Santi Maha Sangha training devised for his students of the Dzogchen Community, this book expounds the fundamental aspects of the Sūtrayāna and Vajrayāna that practitioners are meant to approach and integrate in themselves in the course of their journey toward Buddhahood.
