The Great Dharma of Zen Practice is a teaching transmitted by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III in 2013 to help you develop your mind—to acquire transcendental wisdom or prajna. This translation of a discourse originally intended for Western students provides background on the origin of zen practice, as well as instructions on how to do the meditation practice and instructions on how to remove obstacles to practice. It includes the meaning and history of zen with stories about the Gaomin Monastery in China and the Sixth Patriarch of the Zen School in China, Patriarch Huineng. This was a class developed by Gesang Suolang Rinpoche, a long time practitioner of Zen and a disciple of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III.
