Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche's
reputation as one of the great T'hröma singers was widespread
in Asia. This digital recording made near the end of his life presents
a rare opportunity to hear this great master of the T'hröma
Chöd.
Rinpoche writes in the liner notes, "Traditionally in Tibet,
a person would be required to have empowerment in order to learn
and practice the Chöd Feasts as these are profound teachings
from the Great Perfection. But this practice is known as "t'hod
drol" which means that it possesses the quality of liberating
upon hearing. I am releasing this recording openly because of this
potential to benefit beings in this way."
Chöd is a method for overcoming hope and fear through the
cultivation of supreme generosity.
