One day, I received a message from a Lama friend who said, in essence, \u201cOne of my students has just met a Dzogchen master in Amdo\u00a0<a href=\"#down\"><strong>[1]<\/strong><\/a>. She showed him our photos, and he is asking you to come and be the next holder of his lineage.\u201d It was completely unexpected, and those few words changed the course of my life.<\/p>\n<p>So I set off to join the one who would become my root master in the Great Perfection tradition, Lobsang Dargye Gyamtso Rinpoche, also known as Alags Ch\u00f6rten\u00a0<a href=\"#down\"><strong>[2]<\/strong><\/a>. I didn&#8217;t hesitate, leaving the life I had led until then without any regrets. I thus followed the call of the lineage, as many others before me had done. It may seem crazy, but it was truly the best thing I could have done in my entire life.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #bf9e77;\">\u00a0\u201cThe strength and blessing of the lineage are like the sun rising in the midst of darkness.

I truly realized what \u201cliving lineage\u201d meant by being at the feet of the Great Perfection itself. All the stories Alags told me about his master or the teachers of the lineage were an extraordinary inspiration for my practice. They still are and accompany me constantly. The strength and blessing of the lineage are like the sun rising in the midst of darkness. When we connect with all the masters of the past, our confusion disappears and our doubts fly away, our suffering subsides on its own, and the vision of our true nature emerges spontaneously. Tears spring forth immediately. Thus, if our devotion is pure, said \u015ar\u012b Si\u1e43ha, it naturally meets the Great Perfection of the lineage.
