The Words of My Perfect Teacher by Patrul Rinpoche is a classic commentary on the preliminary practices of Longchen Nyingthig (the Essence of the Heart of Vast Space), one of the most renowned cycles of teachings and a spiritual treasure of the Nyingmapa school, the oldest tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. Many masters regard it as the supreme guide to all preliminary practices—profound, vibrant, and detailed. More broadly, the book serves as a fundamental teaching on the Vehicle of Secret Mantra, presenting essential concepts in a clear and simple manner. Its direct and familiar style, along with a rich variety of quotes, anecdotes, and proverbs accompanying each important idea, prevents the monotony often found in classical expositions. The constant reference to lived experiences highlights the futility of purely intellectual approaches and leads to the recognition of authentic Buddhist practice as a true inner transformation.
