Critics Review
[Karma Chagme] helps to make this profound contemplative path accessible to people in the modern world
“An incomparable introduction to the actual practice of higher meditative instructions.“—Tibet Journal
“Get[s] right into fairly advanced instructions on meditation… . Most chapters are in classic Tibetan fashion almost entirely comprised of quotations from scripture and earlier masters. Gyatrul Rinpoche’s informative commentary is the clear voice that pulls the book together.“—Buddhadharma: The Practitioner’s Quarterly
“Karma Chagmé applies his extensive experience and familiarity with Tibetan oral traditions to reveal how these two meditative systems can be integrated into a single approach.“—Midwest Book Review
Karma Chagme
Karma ChagmP#233; was a major lineage-holder of the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, and his writings have also become central to the Payul Nyingma order, making him an ideal figure to integrate two of the great meditation systems of Tibet: Mahamudra and Atiyoga.
