這是第一本可以直接運用「睡夢」密法， 將自己的夢境與睡眠轉化為真正覺醒的智慧書。 看看自己在夢中的狀態，就會明白自己面臨死亡時可能的遭遇； 看看自己透過夢修的睡眠狀態，就能知道自己的修行程度。 我們的一生有三分之一的時間都在睡覺，每晚都會閉上雙眼，以相同的方式結束一天，在這由清醒到做夢、再恢復清醒的轉換過程，你有能力掌控你的夢幻世界嗎？ 在西藏有一套法門，可以訓練你在「睡覺」與「做夢」中主控睡夢之心，進而培養高度的覺知、創造與改變夢的現象，並且在夢境中完成各種修持。幾百年來，睡覺與夢境，對於許多靈修的大師和成就的瑜伽士而言，不僅是為此生解脫做好準備的重要法門，更是開悟的重要時刻。 睡覺也能修行，夢境也可以被掌控，你知道嗎？ 《西藏睡夢瑜伽》分別給予「夢瑜伽」與「睡眠瑜伽」詳細的教導。首先，從夢的根源、生成過程到如何利用「夢瑜伽」（dream yoga）來知夢、轉化夢境，以及克服障礙。它主要的修持是透過對於氣、脈輪和心的理解，而去增強夢中的覺知和觀照力。修持夢瑜伽不僅能預測未來、指引、淨化不健康的「業」、療癒等利益自己的日常生活，最終，更能以意念控制夢的修習來克服及轉化心的習氣與束縛，從中獲得解脫。 而「睡眠瑜伽」（sleep yoga），就是大家所熟知的「明光瑜伽」（yoga of clear light），這是更為進階的修持。睡眠瑜伽不只是睡眠的修持，它是貫穿清醒、睡眠、禪修和死亡的四種狀態，幫助修學者持續地安住在自心本然狀態的一種修持，一旦死亡來臨時，幫助我們達到明光的體驗。 這兩種修持是相輔相成的，都是增長心的穩定性、將覺知帶入當下，幫助我們獲得控制力與主宰自心的法門。 名人推薦 「內容詳盡地引導我們運用夜晚的生命來覺醒。發人深思，啟發人心，淺顯易懂。」 ──史帝芬．拉柏格博士(Stephen LaBerge, Ph.D.） 《清明夢完全使用手冊》（Lucid Dreaming）的作者 「這本睡夢瑜伽修持的釋論是西藏密續和大圓滿完整教法的窗口。我陶醉在本書之中……強而有力且美妙的教導。」 ──馬丁．羅文塔博士（Martin Lowenthal, Ph.D.） 《開啟慈悲之心》（Opening the Heart of Compassion）的合著者
