The Flight of the Garuda is one of the most treasured collections of Dzogchen songs, expressed through the poetic voice of the renowned 19th-century Tibetan master Shabkarpa. These luminous verses cut directly to the heart of awakening, revealing the natural state of mind with precision and power.

In this new translation, Dr. Nida Chenagtsang brings fresh clarity to Shabkarpa's profound instructions, making these essential teachings accessible to contemporary practitioners in simple modern language, reminiscent of the yogic style of Shabkar himself.

Like the mythical garuda that hatches fully formed and takes flight, these songs of realization point directly to our pristine awareness-primordially pure and spontaneously present. Flight of the Garuda invites you to experience the soaring bird's-eye view-vast, unobstructed, and free.
