Description
An introduction to the principles and practices of meditation draws on the teachings of Mahayana Buddhism to discuss the nature of mind and the meaning of wisdom.
Description
This book is the Dalai Lama's teachings on how to meditate. It is the most extensive explanation His Holiness has given on a classic meditation handbook by Kamalashila. Practice-oriented Westerners will find this favorite text of the Dalai Lama especially useful. In the Dalai Lama's own words, "This text can be like a key that opens the door to all other major Buddhist scriptures." Accordingly, His Holiness often teaches from it to diverse audiences throughout the world. (Back cover).
