Enlightened Courage by Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

Description

Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche (1910-1991) was a highly revered meditation master and scholar of the Nyingma lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. Highly respected by thousands of students throughout the world, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche was one of the foremost poets, scholars, philosophers, and meditation masters of our time. Here he speaks frankly from his heart, drawing on his own life-long experience. Condensing the compassionate path to Buddhahood into practical instructions that use the circumstances of everyday life, Rinpoche presents the Seven-Point Mind Training the very core of the entire Tibetan Buddhist practice. Kyabje Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, whose remarkable life came to an end in September, 1991, was one of the foremost philosophers, poets and meditation masters of the Mahayana, Mahamudra and Great Perfection traditions of Vajrayana Buddhism. He was highly respected by thousands of students in Tibet and throughout the world. Khyentse Rinpoche gave this commentary on the Seven-Point Mind Training, brought to Tibet by the Indian master Atisha, during his last visit to the West. He speaks frankly from his heart, drawing on his own life-long experience. The fact that Rinpoche has departed from this world adds much poignancy to his words, which many of his students regard as his parting gift.
