Taking the Result as the Path: Core Teachings of the Sakya Lamdre Tradition (Library of Tibetan Classics) ReviewThis is the recommended text for the Sakya Lamdré, to be transmitted by the senior American Lama from Tibet, His Holiness Jigdal Dagchen Sakya at Tharlam Monastery in Bodha(nath), Kathmandu, Nepal during the month of October 2007. Translated by Dr. Cy Stearns, a student who not only sat at the feet of H. E. Dezhung Rinpoche, and countless other lamas, but who earned his doctorate in Buddhist Studies, his work enlightens the transmission to the West.
Cy has taken this empowerment, and translated it on point, studying before and after the transmission, taking copious notes of the secret ear whispered teachings which explicate the meaning of this teaching for all levels of students -- then published the full text and contextual transmission. If you have taken this initiation - buy and read this book - it's action packed!
My favorite memory of Cy has long been his detailed transmissions in English after power was turned off every night in Kathmandu; he translated in the dark with only two candles and the occasional flashlight.
Dezhung Rinpoche's knowledge of Buddhist dharma and the Sakya teachings, as well as all traditions of Tibetan Buddhism was encyclopedic, and his kindness legendary. Many of you did not have an opportunity to meet Dezhung Rinpoche, for you his life was documented in "Saint in Seattle, The Life of the Tibetan Mystic Dezhung Rinpoche" written by Cy's friend, David P. Jackson. It is this information and collective knowledge as well as that of the past mystics from this lineage, and the current lineage holders and teachers, such as His Holiness Jigdal Dagchen Sakya, and His Holiness Sakya Trizin, which are found fully satisfied, clearly written in English in these pages.
One very important thing I learned from my root guru which I will share in concluding my glowing recommendation for this text is:
Time runs one way, we get older and older, not younger and younger, so the time to do religious practice runs out. Since the only thing one can count on is change and death, the time to practice is now.
