Analytical Meditation, Songs of Yogic Joy, and Prayers of Aspiration

Here, the Tibetan Buddhist teacher who's known for his joyous, spontaneous songs of realization presents the teachings for which he is known best, in three areas- traditional analytical inquiry, songs of realization, and altruistic prayers. Part 1 includes a section in verse that explains the progressively subtler and more profound levels of meditation on the nature of reality. Part 2 offers a brief introduction to the history and bene?ts of singing songs of yogic joy as a Buddhist practice. It includes commentaries on two songs by the famous Tibetan meditation master Milarepa, and offers step-by-step instructions on how to meditate on the true nature of the mind. Part 3 consists of teachings on the importance of making aspirations motivated by altruism.

Reviews for Stars of Wisdom: Analytical Meditation, Songs of Yogic Joy, and Prayers of Aspiration

“When we consider the remarkable achievements of Khenpo Tsültrim Gyamtso Rinpoche and his contribution to the Dharma, he is, without doubt, one of the great guides of our time.”—The Seventeenth Gyalwang Karmapa “A single word from a truly accomplished guru like Khenpo Rinpoche is worth a thousand pictures. These teachings will make an indelible imprint of nondual wisdom in the reader’s mind that no ‘delete button’ of dualistic consciousness can undo.”—Dzogchen Ponlop, author of Wild Awakening and Mind Beyond Death ""These teachings show us how the Buddhist path of view, meditation, and conduct can be practiced every day, all day, anywhere and everywhere. This book will instruct, delight, and inspire all who read it.”—Elizabeth Callahan, translator of Jamgön Kongtrul’s Treasury of Knowledge: Frameworks of Buddhist Philosophy
