Tibetan Buddhism

With the intimate freshness of a personal teaching, this book presents the main practices of the Mahayana Buddhist path. It details the attitudes cultivated in meditation-ranging from turning away from cyclic existence to developing love and compassion for all beings, to understanding the profound view of emptiness.
