When Buddhism met Tibet’s ancient Bon traditions, something rare emerged: a living blend of shamanic spirit work, tantric Buddhism, and Dzogchen’s direct path to awakening. This first part of our Tibetan Buddhism series explores the land before Buddhism, the rise of Bon, Padmasambhava’s radical integration of local deities, and how Dzogchen invites you to recognize your already-perfect awareness—so you can pick what resonates, leave the rest, and keep refining your own spiritual recipe.
