We are very happy to present our readers with a rare and informal presentation on the early history of Yungdrung Bön by the greatest living Master of this tradition, Yongdzin Lopön Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche. He gave this talk in 1998 at Shambhala Centre in Paris at the end of the teaching retreat so it is aimed at practitioners rather than academicians
