The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- They precede deity yoga.
- The preliminary practices establish the foundation for the more advanced and esoteric Vajrayana sādhanā which are held to engender realization and the embodiment of Dzogchen, Heruka and Mahamudra.
- Nevertheless, Vajrayana masters are careful to point out that "foundational" does not mean "lesser," that the practice of Ngöndro is a complete and sufficient practice of the spiritual path, and that it can take the practitioner all the way to full enlightenment.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ngöndro article was read about 11,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 63 and blocks with 41: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
How to get Ngöndro
