Dream Yoga
and the Practice of Natural Light
By Namkhai Norbu
We spend a third of our lives asleep. It is important not to waste
the spiritual opportunities this time offers. In this clearly-written
book Chögyal Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche sets forth the Dzogchen
teachings on the night practices of dream yoga and natural light,
including the different physical postures and visualisations they
involve. He explains how to distinguish our usual karmic
dreams from the dreams of clarity that can arise as we practice, and
how we can work with our energy to develop lucidity in our dreams.
Norbu Rinpoche also explains how the practices of sleep help us
prepare for death. He introduces the method of bardo, in
which we come to understand that we die in every moment. As we develop
proficiency in practice during our sleep we become better able to
practice during our death.
The book contains fascinating examples of Norbu Rinpoche’s
dreams and an informative interview with the author.
This book is a valuable support to those who have received
instruction on dream yoga and the associated bardo practices from the
Aro gTér.
