520 $aThis book is the Dalai Lama's teachings on how to meditate. It is the most extensive explanation His Holiness has given on a classic meditation handbook by Kamalashila. Practice-oriented Westerners will find this favorite text of the Dalai Lama especially useful. In the Dalai Lama's own words, "This text can be like a key that opens the door to all other major Buddhist scriptures." Accordingly, His Holiness often teaches from it to diverse audiences throughout the world. (Back cover).
