Synopsis:
Khunu Lama was revered by Tibetan Buddhists of all traditions as the very embodiment of altruism, as one who devoted his whole life to the development of bodhicitta - the altruistic aspiration to attain enlightenment for the sake of all living beings. One of the Dalai Lama's root gurus, Khunu Rinpoche Tenzin Gyaltsen was born in the Indo-Tibetan borderlands at the end of the nineteenth century and this wonderful work is a collection of his inspiring verse, presented in both English and Tibetan.

"To hold in your hands Khunu Rinpoche's own words on bodhicitta is to be given a priceless opportunity - of touching the heart of a master who had made it the guiding light of his entire life...whenever I think of Khunu Rinpoche, I always say to myself, this is what St.Francis of Assisi must have been like". Sogyal Rinpoche.

"Vast as the Heavens, Deep as the Sea is extremely inspiring and very poetic, very sweet and pleasing to read, like drinking nectar or eating cream." Lama Thubten Zopa.

"A classic, in the tradition of Shantideva's great masterpiece, the Way of the Bodhisattva." Matthieu Ricard.
