A key Dzogchen text—available together with its Tibetan commentaries, including from the fifteenth Karmapa—from a preeminent translator. The Aspiration Prayer of Samantabhadra, one of the most famous and often-recited Dzogchen texts, is at once an entreaty by the primordial buddha, Samantabhadra, that all sentient beings recognize the nature of their minds and thus become buddhas, and also a wake-up call by our own buddha nature itself. This monumental text outlines the profound view of Dzogchen in a nutshell and, at the same time, provides clear instructions on how to discover the wisdom of a buddha in the very midst of afflictions. In this volume, Karl Brunnhölzl offers translations of three versions of the Aspiration Prayer and accompanies them with translations of the commentaries by Jigmé Lingpa, the Fifteenth Karmapa, and Tsültrim Sangpo. He offers further contextualization with his rich annotation and appendices, which include additional translation from Jigmé Lingpa, Longchenpa, and Patrul Rinpoche. This comprehensive, comprehensible book illuminates this profound text and greatly furthers our understanding of Dzogchen—and of our own nature.

Anyone who has ever cared for a child knows a lullaby a gentle song can quiet and calm a childs active spirit. As the children of God, our minds can also be full of distractions and worries and a full agenda that competes with Gods best for us. In God Loves a Lullaby, Jonathan Herst, himself a young father, examines the Father heart of God. Just as a human parent responds to the cries and fears of his children, God hears our cries and anxieties. Jonathan Herst examines a full slate of our emotional issues desperation, regret, loneliness, anger, and many others, and contrasts our view of those feelings at the time, with Gods eternal point of view. In this simple devotional, the author invites us to consider how God hears our prayers. Gods view, Jonathan reasons, is different than ours. Our prayers may seem like emotional desperation, but they are music to the ears of our Father, God. Read on, and you too will find that God Loves a Lullaby. J. Kie Bowman Senior Pastor Hyde Park Baptist Church The Quarries Church Austin, Texas
