    The Lion-Faced Ḍākinī Sadhana By Karma Chagme སེང་གདོང་མའི་སྒྲུབ་ཐབས་བཞུགས་སོ། ། ཆགས་མེད་ར་ག Translated and edited by Adele Tomlin The Lion-Faced Ḍākinī Sadhana Author: Karma Chagme Translator and Editor: Adele Tomlin Lion-Faced Ḍākinī EMPOWERMENT AND TRANSMISSION ARE ESSENTIAL BEFORE READING OR PRACTISING THIS TEXT First Edition, 2018. Publishing and Content Copyright: Adele Tomlin/Dakini Publications, 2018. Available for free private use and download. Please do not copy, re-produce or publish without express permission. 1 Translator’s Introduction The Lion-Faced Ḍākinī (seng ge gdong ma, Skt: Siṃhamukhā) is a female deity considered to be especially effective for dispelling black magic, curses, obstacles and harm-doers. In the Nyingma terma tradition, she is considered as one of the many forms of Padmasambhava, specifically a secret form of Guru Rinpoche manifested to avert spiritual obstacles and negativity. In the Sarma traditions she arises out of the Chakrasamvara cycle of tantras and belongs to the Highest Yoga Tantra 'wisdom' classification. The revelation of the root mantra for Lion-Faced Ḍākinī is also associated with the name of a famous translator and Sakya master, Bari Lotsawa (ba ri lo tsA) (aka Rinchen Drak (rin chen grags)) (1040-1111) — the second throne holder of Sakya school (Sakya Trizin). At the age of 63, he retained the seat of Sakya for a period of eight years (1102-1110). The great Sakya and Nyingma master, Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo wrote a history of the lineage of Siṃhamukhā, which has been translated and published in English onlinei. According to that biography, Bari was shown how to reveal the mantra treasure directly by Lion-Faced Ḍākinī herself, in order to avert the black magic and sorcery of an Indian master.

  • Kurmanji Or Kurdish Language
    Grammar of the Kurmanji or Kurdish Language E. B. Soane Author of ' To Kurdistan and Mesopotamia in Disguise , etc. LONDON LUZAC & CO. PUBLISHERS TO THE INDIA OFFICE 46 GREAT RUSSELL STREET INTRODUCTORY NOTICE IT is not so long ago that Kurdish was described by travellers as a harsh jargon, a very corrupt dialect of Persian, unintelligible to any but the folk who spoke it naturally; or again by others as an artificial language composed of Persian, Armenian, and Turltish ~zo~ds.It is neither of these. A little research proves it to be as worthy of the name of a separate and developed language as Turkish or Persian themselves. The early Medes and Persians spoke two different languages,Medic or Avestic and STEPHEN AUSTIN SONS, L1.1). Old Persian (that of the inscriptions), but the two tongues PI?INTEl?S,HERTFORD llave grown further apart than was originally the case; and while Persian has adopted almost as great a proportion of Arabic words as our own Anglo-Saxon did of Latin and Greek words to form modern English, Kurdish, eschewing importations, has kept parallel, but on different lines of grammar; and while frequently adopting a phrase or turn of expression from its sister language, has retained an independence of form and style that marks it as a tongue as different from the artificial Persian as the rough Kurd himself is from the polished Persian. The seclusion and exclusiveness which have been its preservation have also been the means of allowing a certain development into dialects in the almost inaccessible mountains which are the home of the Kurdish nation.
