Product Overview

This compelling collection of essays, talks, and seminars by Chgyam Trungpa presents the basic teachings of Buddhism as they relate to everyday life. The book is divided into three parts. In Personal Journey the author discusses the qualities of openness, inquisitiveness, and good humor that characterize the enlightened Buddha-nature in everyone. In Stages on the Path he presents the three vehicles-Hinayana, Mahayana, and Vajrayana-that carry the Buddhist practitioner toward enlightenment. In Working with Others he describes the direct application of Buddhist teachings in such areas as relationships, children, and money. Chgyam Trungpa's great appreciation of Western culture combined with his deep understanding of the Tibetan tradition makes these teachings uniquely accessible to Western readers.
