Good read. I recommend it, though it seemed to me more targeting the population that desire an hermlitage experience.
Excellent! But not for the feint of heart. Enjoyed: MEDITATION (p.204-205) Dudjom Rinpoch: "whatever thoughts arise, let them arise. Do not follow them, do not obstruct them." "That is the natural expression of awareness itself." "..leaving them freely to themselves.."

This book?Highly recommend.
A good book featuring Matthieu Ricard's introduction to several topics followed by quotes from different Masters. Not in depth by any means, but more than superficial. A nice overview.

Great little book of pertinent quotes. I'll be referencing this one into the future.
This book was very interesting. I've read a few books on Enlightenment and I guess "Buddhist" teachings. Nonetheless, the reason I read this book, was because I was trying to find a book that would be a good reference book of the foundation teachings of Buddhism. I've been on this search for a while, and have encountered many books about the divine life, etc... blah... blah... blah... but, I was unsuccessful. So basically, and unfortunately, I'm still on the search to find a good book on Buddhis...
A very practical and illuminating selection of heart advice from the Tibetan Masters. Of particular interest to anyone on the Mahayana path.
Incredibly interesting read as a non-Buddhist. I enjoy learning about different religions, and this struck me more as a philosophy than a religion. The aspect of selflessness, charity, and love for mankind seems far more central to the tenets of this faith than modern day Christianity. I think we can learn a lot from this. I wouldn't call this a must read for all, regardless of faith, but if you're interested in the teachings of other belief systems, general world philosophies, and personal grow...
A series of great advice from various amazing Tibetan teachers and practitioners: very hands on and down to earth!
