DZOGCHEN, TANTRISM, SHAMANISM AND TRANSPERSONAL PSYCHOLOGY – UNIV. IN  ŁÓDŹ - PART V

The approaches of Dzogchen, Tantra, Shamanism and Transpersonal Psychology will be compared. All of them work with transpersonal and holotropic conditions achieved by raising the Energetic Volume Determining the Scope of Awareness, yet not all of them distinguish between (1) rigpa’s nonstatic nirvāṇa and (2) holotropic saṃsāric conditions such as (2a) the neutral base-of-all and (2b) the formless realms. Dzogchen raises that volume by most powerful means that allow it to keep at its maximum for a very long time—in particular, facilitating the spontaneous arising of the visions of rol pa energy—so as to make delusion untenable and catalyze its spontaneous liberation: the Base is Buddhahood in act; the Path is the repeated rediscovery of the Base, and the Fruit is the irreversible unconcealment of the Base. Tantra raises it by yogic and specifically Tantric means that work with energy potential, energy circulation and energy configurations and / or a particular approach toward erotic relationships in order to have an initial glimpse of the true condition of ourselves and all phenomena. Some systems of Transpersonal Psychology raise it by means of psychedelics and other methods in order to induce transpersonal and perinatal experiences that are deemed healing. And some shamanic systems it by means of psychedelics in order to contact a nonphysical reality of beings it deems to be the true reality, so as to manipulate it for healing or destructive purposes. Buddhahood as Fruit is most rapidly achieved by means of Dzogchen, and it can also be achieved by Tantric means, albeit more slowly. Contrariwise, the purposes of shamanism often contradict those of Buddhism. And Transpersonal Psychology needs to learn from Buddhist Dzogchen and Tantra in order to be really effective.
