Great inspirational buddhist reading...ruminates on compassion, meditation, being in the moment always
Great overview of the Shambhala Tibetan Buddhist Path.
Chogyam Tringpa's books are unfathomable. I could read the same title a million times and still find something new...something I missed before. He understands human beings in the deepest way.
Though I couldn't help but chuckle cynically at his essay on "conscious drinking," I got a lot out of this pithy collection of essays and transcribed talks. This book was especially helpful in delineating what to expect when taking the refuge and bodhisattva vows, and it allayed some fears of mine (and instigated others) about what may lay in store as I pursue the Shambhala vajrayana path further.
The book that let me know I had been a Buddhist all my life, only hadn't known what it was called.
The last series of chapters are amazing. Each one is like a gift of wisdom.
A great book of various dharma teachings by Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche.
