Very Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: just a hint of wear to extremities; former bookseller's rubber-stamped logo at the upper corner of the front endpaper; the binding shows barely discernible lean while remaining perfectly secure; the text is clean. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. 307pp. Second Edition Revised 1992 Second Printing 1995. First released by Wisdom Press in 1982. Trade Paperback. Based on oral teachings received by the author as well as authentic works from great masters like Je Tsonkhapa and the first Panchen Lama this book provides a detailed and precise explanation of the completion stage practices of Tantric Mahamudra. It takes the reader from the initial Meditation on the Subtle Body through Inner Fire Meditation to the final attainment of Full Enlightenment. Some of the topics include: Channels Winds and Drops Clear Light and the Four Joys Nine Mixings and the Two Mudras the Nature of Mind instructions to achieve Tranquil Abiding Meditation on Emptiness the Illusory Body Clear Light and Union and Resultant Mahamudra. Although the main purpose of this book is to explain the advanced practices of Mahamudra students of different levels will benefit from the clear and practical explanations and instructions on many aspects of Vajrayana Buddhism. These include foundational issues like how to develop meditative concentration and how to meditate on emptiness. It also answers question like "what causes the dream body to enter the gross body when we wake from the dream state" And on to instruction on how to mix with the Truth Body Enjoyment Body and Emanation Body during death. One gets as much out of this book as one is capable of and cannot help but being inspired by it. Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche has been residing and teaching in the West for more than twenty years transmitting ancient wisdom to the modern world. A fully accomplished Tantric Master he wants this book to especially benefit the Western Dharma practitioners. First published in 1982 this book is already a classic. The writing is simple and direct. The explanations and instructions are extremely clear leaving nothing to guesswork. Especially valuable for the practitioners are the superb and unparalleled descriptions of the inner states. Making this book more than just a philosophical discourse or a reference but a veritable guide. Tharpa Publications, paperback‎

‎Awakening the Mind: Basic Buddhist Meditations.‎

‎Boston MA Wisdom 1995. Paperback Second Edition Revised & Enlarged. Fine in Wraps: binding square and secure; text clean. Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. 263pp. Second Edition Revised & Enlarged. Trade Paperback. This book presents the classical curriculum for Buddhist meditators of the Gelugpa Scool of Tibetan Buddhism. I have studied for several years with a Lharampa Geshe of this same school and found that this book followed not only the same subject matter which my teacher was giving to me in the traditional oral teaching method but was presented in the same sequence as well. Even more surprising the author in many cases used the exact phrasing and the same analogies as my teacher. I think that this must not only be a testament to the superior educational experience inside of the Gelugpa monasteries but also to the impeccable quality of this particular author and his exposition of the material. As a Buddhist practitioner meditator and student of the Gelugpa school of thought I must highly recommend this book. As an aside several of my non-Buddhist friends have read this book also and all have been very excited about the "accessibility" of its' approach to meditation in general. A nice one.
