with Costantino Albini

The practice of Chod is a very special method to
overcome the limitations of our ego and in that way
to overcome all our various attachments.

The practice of Chod is very widespread in Tibet, not only in the Dzogchen teachings but in all schools of Buddhism, as well as in the Bon tradition. Its origin can be traced principally to the female master, Machig Labdron. She was a great Tibetan practitioner, who lived around 1000 A.D. The Chod practice came into being as the essence of all the teachings she had received, but above all, it derived directly from her own experience and knowledge. Machig Labdron discovered that at the root of all our problems is the ego,because it is the ego which limits us.
