    Description:  Dzogchen, or Atiyoga, is one of the most ancient teachings in the world. It is usually regarded as the culmination of the philosophy and meditation practice in the Buddhist teaching. In the past few years during the Christmas period, Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche has been holding teaching retreats in Merigar, Arcidosso, Italy, and giving Dzogchen teachings to people from all over the world. In the 1985 Christmas retreat he spent many days explaining the original Dzogchen text, the Six Vajra Verses, also known as the Rigbai Kujyiig (rig.pai. khu.byug.), 'The Cuckoo's Cry of the State of Presence.

    This is the first time that Norbu Rinpoche gave a complete oral commentary to this text in a public retreat in the west. In the hope that more people may benefit from his explanation, I embarked on editing the transcript in such a way that the teaching is presented in three sections: an introduction and translation of the text, a concise explanation, and a long explanation, in a style similar to that of traditional Tibetan commentary books.
