In the twelfth episode of “What is Dzogchen?”, the second of the “three series” (sde gsum) of Dzogchen, Nils Derboule and Mila Khyentse Rinpoche continue to give us an initial glimpse of the Dzogchen tradition, highlighting the Longde series (klong sde), which is the second of the “three series” (sde gsum).

Host: Grégoire

Notes

Traditionally, the three series are introduced in succession, corresponding to the progression along the Dzogchen path: from the semde (sems sde) – the mind series – to the longde (klong sde) – the matrix space series – and on to the men ngag dé (man ngag sde) – or the direct instruction series.
