Calling the Lama from Afar (Nying U Day Pay)

This profound teaching on Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche's "Lama Gyangpo (Calling the Lama from Afar)" was given by Lama Tharchin Rinpoche on July 16, 1998, at Pema Ösel Ling. The text is a Guru Yoga song of realization (doha), based on the Dzogchen tradition. 

The teaching explores the essential role of Guru Yoga in realizing the ultimate nature of mind, emphasizing that according to Dudjom Rinpoche, Guru Yoga is the most effective technique for recognizing rigpa (awareness). Lama Tharchin Rinpoche explains the three levels of guru (outer, inner, and secret), the crucial importance of faith and devotion, and how the ultimate guru is inseparable from one's own Buddha nature.
