New translations of teachings on meditative practice from four highly influential Tibetan Buddhist traditions. Drawing primarily from the Pacification, Severance, Shangpa Kagyu, and Bodong traditions, Four Tibetan Lineages presents some of Tibet' s most transformative yet lesser-known teachings on meditative practice. Most works in this volume are drawn from a Tibetan anthology known as the Treasury of Precious Instructions compiled by Jamgoen Kongtrul Lodroe Thaye (1813-1900). A vast preservation project, this anthology reflects Kongtrul' s attempt to rescue rare teachings from disappearing. By foregrounding the teachings of masters like Khedrup Khyungpo Naljor (d. 1135), Dampa Sangye (d. 1117), Machik Labdroen (1031/55-1126/50), Jonang Taranatha (1575-1634), and Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo (1820-92), this volume extends Jamgoen Kongtrul' s preservation efforts into the modern world.
