ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to record my debt to Professor D.L. Snellgrove who first acted as my supervisor when I began to conduct my research into rDzogs chen and prepare it for the Ph.D. thesis in the University of London. Also when I was preparing the work for publication he took pains to check and make suggestions in the first two chapters. I am also greatly indebted to my friend Dr. John Moores of London University without his kindness and most generous assistance the English language of the work would have been much less smooth. I also would like to express my gratitude to Professors R.A. Stein, D.S. Ruegg and A.W. Macdonald who all gave me advice. My sincere thanks are also due to Mme. A.-M. Blondeau who always took a great interest in the progress of this work and gave me much encouragement. Let me also record my indebtedness to ’Od-zer Rab-dbang, my son who not only has been the sustenance of courage in time of stress, but also has been most understanding in spite of his young age and last but not least to Heather Stoddard without her unstinting help, it would have been difficult to bring this work to an end.
