Synopsis

The authors explore vajra-romance as the living application and dynamism of the Nyi-da Melong a Dzogchen tantra from the cycle of visionary teachings of the enigmatic Nyingma treasure discoverer Khyungchen Aro Lingma. The Nyi-da Melong Gyud opens the door to those who are inspired to integrate every aspect of human life with spiritual practice and puts to rest the myth that celibacy holds any demonstrable spiritual advantage. Sexuality is portrayed as the pervasive stratum of the senses and sense-fields and as such, the lifeblood of the creative arts. Although this teaching is common, in its essential form, to all Vajrayana traditions, it has never before been extrapolated in such detail with regard to how it is lived within romantic relationships. Here we find a vivid presentation of the practice of the Nyida Melong, characteristic of the milieu of the mahasiddhas. The authors discuss in profound depth the spiritual vivacity of falling in love, perceptual intimacy, vajra-romance, non-dual passion, liberated lust, and the poignant possibility of remaining in love forever.
