AbstractThe book is a translation of the great Tibetan Buddhist classic the Dagpo Tarjen by Je Gampopa. For some 800 years this masterly overview of the Buddha's teaching has served as a handbook for followers of the 12 Kagyu traditions, which all stem from Je Gampopa's disciples. Placing the quintessential meaning of hundreds of Buddhist scriptures in the palm of one's hand, it provides an ideal resource for those new to Buddhism and is an invaluable reference work for experienced practitioners. Gampopa's life had been predicted by Lord Buddha in the Great Compassion Lotus Sutra. A saintly monk and accomplished scholar, he was inspired to seek out Milarepa-who has since become Tibet's most famous yogin-under whose guidance he attained enlightenment. The book contains a wealth of knowledge, presented through the lucidity and authority of a truly enlightened mind. The new translation, the result of 15 years of study under the most distinguished tutors of the Kagyu tradition, carries the blessing of the Lineage and conveys the meaning of Gampopa's text as it has been traditionally taught down the centuries. With a Preface by the XIIth Tai Stupa.
