Synopsis:
A former abbot of one of the largest Tibetan Buddhist monasteries in the world, Khensur Jampa Tegchok has been teaching Westerners about Buddhism since the 1970s. With a deep respect for the intellectual capacity of his Western students, Geshe Tegchok here unpacks with great erudition Buddhism's animating philosophical principle - the emptiness of all appearances. Instead of commenting on a text or relying on a traditional framework, Insight into Emptiness uses accessible language specifically tailored to the Western mind. Engagingly edited by bestselling author Thubten Chodron, this book approaches emptiness from a novel perspective that far exceeds most treatments, and brings the reader into the heart of insight meditation.

"This is one of the best introductions to the philosophy of emptiness that I have ever read. Although many books about emptiness now exist in Western languages, few manage to convey the meaning of this profound idea as clearly as Insight into Emptiness. Khensur Jampa Tegchok manages to explain even the most difficult aspects of Middle Way thought in a manner that is both accessible and lucid." Jose Ignacio Cabezon.

"It is wonderful to see these authoritative and extremely clear teachings. They ease us, step by step, into deeper understanding of emptiness and its liberating power. Highly recommended!" Guy Newland, author of Introduction to Emptiness.

"Khensur Rinpoche Jampa Tegchok is renowned among the great monastic universities for his keen understanding of philosophy and of Madhyamaka in particular. Here you will find vital points and reasoning for a clear understanding of emptiness." Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche.
