Synopsis:
New edition. An illuminating and profound commentary by the Dalai Lama on the Gelugpa Lama Chopa guru yoga, explaining the actual practice on the basis of Guhyasamaja, the preliminaries such as self-generation on the basis of Yamantaka and the performing of offerings and so forth according to Heruka. Guru yoga is an important aspect of the tantric practice of Mahayana Buddhism and the foundation on which the whole tantric structure is built. This book presents practical instruction which blends the essential aspects of the sutra path together with the profound tantric techniques that activate the latent spiritual forces within us. By laying the basic framework of the entire Buddhist path, it also sets down the guidelines for undertaking a complete form of practice on a daily basis and taps into the inspiration of an unbroken lineage.

"What makes his teaching immediately transcend sectarian parameters is his compassion, intelligence, modesty, and wit - that wonderful, unarguable quality of clarity and love that radiates through the Dalai Lama's words..(He) is practically impish in his delight with ing little jokes and wisecracks in the midst of his high tantric commentary - little twinkles from the Dharmakaya. Whether one browses, peruses, or studies this text, it's certain some degree of transmission will twinkle its way from the heart of the Dalai Lama into our own mental continuums." Independent Publisher.
