There is a teaching which, if you are able to practice it intelligently and diligently, is a shortcut to enlightenment within this very body and lifetime, a magical staircase, a secret pathway, the quintessence of all the sutras, tantras and oral instructions, the ultimate view, meditation and action, the vital point of the ground, path and fruition and the victorious summit of all the vehicles. It is Trekcho and Thogal, the instructions of atiyoga.

This book, a profound guidance text written by the learned and accomplished Tsele Natsok Rangdrol, is concise, lucid and easy to practice.

The Circle of the Sun  would benefit everyone interested in the Dharma. The words are clear and easy to understand and lengthy scholarly expositions are not emphasized. This text, easy to comprehend and containing all the key points and very direct instructions, results from following the oral advice of a qualified master.

The most effective style of teaching for a practitioner in this dark age is not a lengthy scholarly explanation but a direct ‘guidance manual'. 'Guidance manual', triyik, means a short, comprehensive teaching.

Trekcho and thogal are the two main topics in this book. Trekcho is the main view in all the Eight Practice Lineages. Through trekcho, all the masters of the past attained enlightenment. Without the view of trekcho one doesn't reach the core of thogal practice. The thogal visions are  rigdang, 'manifestations of awareness', but lacking the correct view of recognizing rigpa, they become nothing but lungdang, 'manifestations of the karmic wind' - expressions of dualistic fixation. Recognizing rigpa is the key point in trekcho.
