This commentary on Padampa Sangye's classic verses of advise to Tibetan villagers of Tingri—by renowned and beloved meditation master Dilgo Khyentse—offers guidance for people trying to lead a dharmic life in the workaday world. These hundred verses, studied for centuries by Tibetans and students of Buddhism, contain a complete survey of the Tibetan Buddhist path. Dilgo Khyentse's lively explication of each stanza brings to light subtleties and amplifies the richness of the words and their pertinence to our lives. These two venerable teachers advise us in relating to everyday difficulties such as loneliness, craving, family squabbles, competition in business, disagreements with neighbors, and betrayal by friends—as challenging to us as they have been to meditators for centuries.

Finding Rest in Illusion is the third volume of the Trilogy of Rest, Longchenpa's classic exposition of the Buddhist path. The purpose of these teachings is to introduce us to our most basic nature - the clear and pristine awareness that is the nature of the mind. Drawing extensively from classic Buddhist works, the author uses well-known examples of illusion found throughout Mahyna literature to illustrate the illusory nature of both sasra and nirva, thus revealing their ultimate nondual nature. This is an invaluable manual for any genuine student of Buddhism who wishes to truly find rest through the path of the Great Perfection

As Palavras do Meu Professor Perfeito de Patrul Rinpoche é um comentário clássico sobre as práticas preliminares do Longchen Nyingthig (a Essência do Coração do Vasto Espaço), um dos ciclos de ensinamentos mais conhecidos e um tesouro espiritual (terma) da escola Nyingmapa, a tradição mais antiga do budismo tibetano. Muitos mestres o consideram um guia supremo de todas as práticas preliminares – profundo, cheio de vida e detalhado. De um modo mais amplo, o livro é um ensinamento fundamental sobre o Veículo do Mantra Secreto e explica o essencial de um modo claro e simples. O estilo direto e familiar, e a grande variedade de citações, historietas e provérbios que acompanham cada idéia importante evitam a monotonia das exposições clássicas. A referência constante às experiências vividas denuncia a futilidade dos enfoques puramente intelectuais e conduz ao reconhecimento da prática autêntica do budismo como uma verdadeira transformação interior.
