Reviews for The Jewel Ornament of Liberation: The Wish-Fulfilling Gem of the Noble Teachings

Anyone who knows the Jewel Ornament well can say that they really understand Buddhism. --Khenpo Konchog Gyaltsen Contains a wealth of useful material for anyone committed to the study and practice of the path and stages, or the Great Vehicle. The introduction is a fine overview of the text, given in a form accessible to the Western non-scholar practitioner. In fact, the introduction constitutes the contents of a single course on the Great Vehicle. . . . Provides a fine biography of Gampopa. --Tibet Journal Anyone who knows the Jewel Ornament well can say that they really understand Buddhism.
