Comprehensible and educative."-The Middle Way"This comprehensive and inspiring rendition highlights the extraordinary details of Gampopa's meditative experiences and presents direct insights into the practices and realisation of Mahamudra."-Buddhism Now"Dharma Lord Gampopa was a crown jewel of Buddhist history particularly in Tibet. He was an enlightened master both in scholarship and realization. He combined the two most famous lineages of Atisha and Milarepa. Many great masters followed his example of practicing the three vows without any contradiction. This life story will give explicit insight into the meaning of 'great Dharma master'-one who keeps his own precepts and leads other sentient beings toward enlightenment. So I urge everyone to read this book and understand it thoroughly. Jampa Stewart has been a Buddhist practitioner for many years. He is well-versed in Buddhist philosophy and especially in Buddhist history. I admire his dedicating his whole life to the Dharma and to helping others."-Khenchen Konchog Gyeltshen Rinpoche --This text refers to the paperback edition.About the AuthorJampa Mackenzie Stewart is a student of the Kagyu and Nyingma lineages of Tibetan Buddhism.
