The Rain of Wisdom: The Essence of the Ocean of True Meaning, Bringing the Rain of Wisdom, the Spontaneous Self-liberation, the Blazing Great Bliss, the Quick Path to Realization of the Supreme Siddhi, the Vajra Songs of the Kagyü Gurus
The tradition of composing spontaneous songs that express spiritual understanding has existed in Tibet for centuries. Over one hundred of these profound songs are found in this collection of the work of some of the greatest teachers of the Kagyu Lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. With their vivid imagery and deep insight, the songs in this book communicate in a very direct way profound and timeless insight. The Rain of Wisdom is read aloud in its entirety by Tibetan Buddhists every year on the New Year. It has been reprinted in cloth in response to demand by Buddhist practitioners.
