What They're Saying
Critics Review
“This mahamudra text is very clear and extremely detailed. It is very rare to find a teaching such as this one that is a complete presentation of mahamudra that includes the three sources of transmission on this topic: teachings of Lord Buddha, commentaries of his most learned followers and, especially, experiential pith instructions by highly realized masters. I read it when I was young and found it to be of great help in my own practice, so it is my hope that it may also bring benefit to all those who practice mahamudra.”—Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, author of Turning Confusion into Clarity
“In mahamudra meditation, chaos and emotional upheaval are not rejected but instead used as the fuel for the journey of discovering the truth, transforming confusion into sanity and wisdom. I believe this is the reason why more and more people are waking up to the need and are seeking out mahamudra practice.
This book is an extraordinary blessing and indispensable for anyone who has an earnest, fervent wish and intention to pursue this path. May it serve as a source of inspiration and practical guide to help cut through the veil of illusion, and allow us to discover the luminous, radiant, and joyful heart within each of us. With proper guidance, faith, and devotion, spiritual awakening shall swiftly arise in the fortunate ones!”—Drukpa Choegon Rinpoche, spiritual head of Dechen Choekhor Monastery
“A practical handbook for the deepest insights a human being can gain, written by a master meditator in clear and simple language.”—Erik Pema Kunzang, translator of Jewels of Enlightenment
