The Sadhana of Mahamudra was received as a terma (dharma treasure) vision, and composed by Vidyadhara Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche during a retreat at Taktsang, Bhutan, in 1968. The Sadhana is a complete and profound Vajrayana Buddhist practice, particularly directed toward revitalizing spiritual inspiration and insight in these times of global materialism and sectarian strife. The Sadhana was a major breakthrough for Trungpa Rinpoche in his aspiration and quest to establish the Vajrayana teachings in the modern world. It is a potent embodiment of the teaching, lineage, and transmission of Buddhism, and joins the two great lineages of Mahamudra and Maha Ati. It continues to be a powerful portal of the Buddhist teachings and practice to the world, and is particularly important now, during these increasingly challenging times.
