Reader Review
Excelent - worth buying, August 14, 2000
Reviewer: Michael Virochana Khalsa
(see more about me at Amazon.com)
from Crestone, CO USA
This book is straight-forward, written from the heart,
and includes enough of the essentials of the practices it
promotes to enable a practitioner to start. Many authors
and teachers of the tibetan buddhist lineages seem more
concerned with parrating their scriptures or boosting
their spot in heirarchy than communicating with those
around them, and dealing with issues. The author of this
book, however seems more concerned with communicating
with those in his company or who are reading his books,
to help them develop their own practice and fruits.
Highly Recomended, also his other books as well.

Reader Review
Obeisance to all Gurus:, October 18,
2000
Reviewer: LARRY HUTCHINSON
from williamston, mi United States
Tsongkhapa presents an overview of six different
practices for striving towards purification and
enlightenment in this detailed book. It is a must for
those studying the Kagyu Lineage, and the life and works
of the famous Tibetan Saint Milarepa. Marpa who studied
directly under Naropa, and Milarepa are two of the most
popular Tibetan teachers of Buddhism and whose reputaion
is still highly reguarded to this day. These exercises
were the foundation of the path as they help us take a
stronger grasp of this lineage of Tibetan Buddhism as we
gain the pure view of the Mahamudra. An interesting and
unconventional approach is the signature of this lineage,
and we get a full view of there practice through
Tsngkhapa. It is inevitable that this unique book was to
be published for us in a clear, direct, and honest
approach in an english translation.

Book Description
In what he calls a "200 percent potent"
teaching, Chögyam Trungpa reveals how the spiritual path
is a raw and rugged "unlearning" process that
draws us away from the comfort of conventional
expectations and conceptual attitudes toward a naked
encounter with reality. The tantric paradigm for this
process is the story of the Indian master Naropa (1016-1100),
who is among the enlightened teachers of the Kagyu
lineage of the Tibetan Buddhism. Naropa was the leading
scholar at Nalanda, the Buddhist monastic university,
when he embarked upon the lonely and arduous path to
enlightenment. After a series of daunting trials, he was
prepared to receive the direct transmission of the
awakened state of mind from his guru, Tilopa. Teachings
that he received, including those known as the six
doctrines of Naropa, have been passed down in the
lineages of Tibetan Buddhism for a millennium. Trungpa's
commentary shows the relevance of Naropa's extraordinary
journey for today's practitioners who seek to follow the
spiritual path. Naropa's story makes it possible to
delineate in very concrete terms the various levels of
spiritual development that lead to the student's
readiness to meet the teacher's mind. Trungpa thus opens
to Western students of Buddhism the path of devotion and
surrender to the guru as the embodiment and
representative of reality.
