The Song of Awakening contains Namgyal Rinpoche's pith instructions on the classical practice of Mindfulness of Death, the practice of meditation in general and the exemplary practice of Mahamudra 'the supreme path of enlightenment'. Included are key teachings and references to various schools of Buddha-Dharma, Judeo-Christianity and the Western Mysteries, as well as modern psychology and philosophy; all disciplines in which he was a master. This transmission, clearly and deftly woven throughout his discourses, retains and reveals the essence of each of them placed in a context relevant for this age. Although more than four decades have passed since Rinpoche first gave these teachings, they remain as fresh and as timeless a guide to liberation as they were when he gave them then.
