4.0 out of 5 stars
The most important guidance for Vajrayana,
By C.Kumarbabu (Chennai,Tamilnadu, India) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Treasures of the Tibetan Middle Way (The Clear light series) (Diary)
One has to read atleast 3 books written by H.V.Guenther before becoming familiar with his style of writing with liberal "free" translations. It is clear that Guenther is well versed in the Buddhist experience which can be understood beyond doubt from this book. All the four chapters in the part two(Tibetan sources)require a detailed study. I have collected the following treasures: "....we must develop a middle view and become convinced that our mind is of the nature of great bliss by thinking that all appearances are but the projections of our mind and that there is nothing existing in truth". "....to unite bliss with no-thing-ness means that our mind which is this great bliss becomes a mind which understands no-thing-ness. "to see no-thing-ness is the cognition that all things do not exist by virtue of a principle through which they are what they are". Embedded in these statements is the essence of the Vajrayana teaching. This book will be very useful for all serious seekers of the Buddha Dharma.
