Rongzom Chökyi Zangpo

The Black Snake Discourse

by Rongzom Chökyi Zangpo

In this brief treatise, Rongzom deploys the example of a black snake’s reflection in water to illustrate the differences between the tenets of the Śrāvakas, Mādhyamikas, followers of Kriyā and Yoga Tantra, Mahāyoga, and the Great Perfection.
