What They're Saying
Critics Review
“This great text of one hundred profound instructions by the most revered mahasiddha of the noble land of India, Padampa Sangye, contains all one needs to know if one aspires to follow the Vajrayana path. And now this timeless volume is made all the more relevant and accessible through an especially illuminating commentary by the Venerable Kyabje Thrangu Rinpoche, who in my mind is one of the most learned and realized beings here with us on earth.”—Dzigar Kongtrül, author of It’s Up to You
