Despite Harding's protestations, I think his first satori experience had something to do with being on holiday in the Himalayas rather than, say, being in the conditions in which I read about it i.e. in a train underground between Tooting Bec and Balham.

Didn't have the same impact as some other stuff I've read on the topic.

Essentially a meditation manual for the still-esoteric practice of Dzogchen/Mahamudra/"the direct path". Superseded by "Seeing that Frees", but still a great piece of de-mystification with a genius-level pointing out instruction.
