Grigor, what you write is quite interesting.  But could you expand on =
this
somewhat so that those of us interested might pursue this for ourselves.

What is this Dzog chen root text that you refer to?  Can you give us
some references for the text?  Is there a translation of it into =
English?

Again can you tell us your source for the Dalai Lama's statement?

Thanks.

Daniel
