The Classifications of Awareness

The Classifications of Awareness —The five kinds of Riga — by Jean-Luc Achard, translated from the French by Marianne Ginalski, PDF ed., Khyung-mkhar, September 2017, 11 pages.

Back cover:

Awareness (rig pa) is the direct, non-discursive knowledge of one’s natural state. It is through Awareness that the practitioner clearly discerns (rig) what this state is. It is also through Awareness that he is able to distinguish this state from the various aspects of consciousness which are considered to be conditioned. According to the texts, there exist up to fifteen kinds of Awareness. Here, we shall deal with the presentation in five modalities.
