Re Disengaging: In the #Nyingma tradition it is perfectly normal (and of equal status) to be a householder practitioner, and it is said that many householders achieve full awakening.
Under #Dzogchen the disengagement is more mental than physical, one trains to be not captivated by the sensory world, whilst still operating in it.
Of course, periods of meditational retreat are extremely helpful (essential?) in gaining that ability to be actively detached.

Broadly speaking, the first two are practices of the Theravada communities, the rest are all within #Mahayana.
4 - 8 comprise #Vajrayana,
9 is #Atiyoga, a.k.a #Dzogchen.
I hope this helps you (and all other sentient beings) achieve full awakening.

The Avatamsaka Sutra blasts my mind open (aka #Dzogchen) :
"Having realized that this world is like a dream, and that all Buddhas are like mere reflections, that all principles [dharma] are like an echo, you move unimpeded in the world"
quoted in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatamsaka_Sutra
The Sutra's Book 39 - Entry into the Realm of Reality - is Sudhana's quest for #Bodhisattva training - inspirational for anyone on the #Mahayana path.

Have voted #Vajrayana, but practice #Dzogchen, which some authorities (eg #Lonchenpa) regard as 'beyond' Vajrayana.

@michaelflanagan According to #Dzogchen the #nonduality state is the base, the underlying of all experience but that doesn't correspond to our common experience.
Unless we went through an "awakening" experience, induced or spontaneous, we live in a world divided in three states: Wakefulness, dream and (deep) sleep.
The screenshots are from "Turiya" by Santata Gamana
In this system the state of non-duality corresponds to the sahaja samadhi that when deepened leads to the sate of Turiya.

If you look at the list of interests I posted previously, you will easily see that the kernel of my interest lays on the east. #IndianTantra #Vajrayana #Taoism #AdvaitaVedanta #Dzogchen and #Buddhism are the core of my understanding of the spiritual way.
I don't claim either any kind of originality. The trademarks of the teachings belong to the respective schools I just try to make them clear to the common lay people that happen to develop any interest on them.
