Product Information
Two great masters present the Buddhist path in its entirety in Padampa Sangye's hundred pithy verses of advice and Dilgo Khyentse's accompanying commentary. These verses present instructions to all Buddhist meditators, especially laypeople, who are trying to live in the workaday world and practice the Buddhist teachings. They offer the best approach to family squabbles and resentment; obsession with material wealth; betrayal by friends; loneliness; abandonment; the illusory nature of sense pleasures-and the imminence of death.Product Identifiers
