Integrating stillness and movement
Longde teachings emphasize that awareness is not confined to meditation stillness. True stability comes when recognition of rigpa continues seamlessly through both stillness and movement.
Awareness recognize
Trekchö (cutting through rigidity)
Trekchö, often translated as 'cutting through,' is one of the two central practices of Menngagde. It directly reveals the primordial purity of awareness by cutting through the rigidity of grasping and conceptual elaboration.
Using reminders and bells
Because distraction is strong and habits are deep, Dzogchen practitioners often use reminders—both natural and intentional—to recall awareness throughout the day. Bells and other cues serve as supports for continuity of rigpa.
