Stars of Wisdom:
Analytical Meditation, Songs of Yogic Joy, and Prayers of Aspiration
by Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso
Translated by Ari Goldfield, Rose Taylor
Foreword by H. H. the Dalai Lama, The XVII Karmapa
From Shambhala Publications:
The Tibetan Buddhist teacher who’s known for his joyous, spontaneous songs of realization presents the teachings for which he is known best, in three areas: traditional analytical inquiry, songs of realization, and altruistic prayers. Part 1 includes a section in verse that explains the progressively subtler and more profound levels of meditation on the nature of reality. Part 2 offers a brief introduction to the history and benefits of singing songs of yogic joy as a Buddhist practice. It includes commentaries on two songs by the famous Tibetan meditation master Milarepa, and offers step-by-step instructions on how to meditate on the true nature of the mind. Part 3 consists of teachings on the importance of making aspirations motivated by altruism.
Book available for purchase from Shambhala Publications.
