This review is from: Lojong - Transforming the Mind (Boxed Set) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The Eight Verses on Transforming the Mind written by the eleventh century meditator, Geshe Langri Tangpa Dorjey Sengey, is one of the most important texts from a genre of Tibetan spiritual writings known as Lojong, literally "training," or "transforming the mind." The central themes of Lojong are enhancing compassion, cultivating balanced attitudes towards oneself and others, developing positive ways of thinking, and transforming adverse situations into conditions favorable for spiritual development. His Holiness often refers to The Eight Verses as one of his main sources of inspiration. He gave these teachings at the Wembley Conference Centre in London, May 8-10, 1999.

Approximately 5.4 hours on 4 videocasettes.

A co-production of the Office of Tibet (London), Meridian Trust, Jukes Productions and Mystic Fire Video.
