Description ▲
This book contains over 90 poems, traditionally known as vajra dohas, which arose spontaneously in Rinpoche's mind as she travelled and practiced the Buddhist teachings in Nepal, India, Europe and New York City. They reflect both the obstacles she encountered along her journey, as well as their antidotes. "The teachings are about non-duality more than anything else," Rinpoche says. "That the obstacles contain the antidotes within them is one example of how that non-duality plays out practically in life." Two essays are included in this book, as well as excellent notes explaining terms and concepts which may be unfamiliar to non-Buddhist readers.
