What They're Saying
Critics Review
“When I think of Zurchungpa for his great scholarship, years of practice in solitary retreats, and for his great wisdom, compassion, and charisma to lead countless students of all levels, my mind naturally goes to Dilgo Khentse Rinpoche. He must have been someone like him. This book enshrines the living experience and heart of two truly realized masters, translated by people who not only understand but also practice the teachings.“—Ringu Tulku
“An extraordinary guide to authentic spiritual practice, combining the wisdom of three of the greatest masters of the Tibetan tradition.“—Matthieu Ricard
“Among the senior Tibetan teachers in our generation, it is well known that Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche’s commentaries are not merely scholarly explanations but interpretations coming directly from the depth of his own personal experience. This wonderful text by Zurchungpa is further enriched by his remarkable commentary.“—Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche “It is impossible to read this work with an open mind and heart without being deeply affected by the realized wisdom found on its pages. If we do not yet possess the deep trust or faith that makes our encounter with the Dharma fruitful, this book has all the qualities necessary to ripen our mind to the point where it can readily ‘mingle’ with the Dharma, as Dilgo Rinpoche put it.“—Georg Feuerstein, PhD
