Description
This introduction to Buddhist psychology supplies essential instructions for successful meditation practice. Rinpoche presents meditation practices that can powerfully influence and ultimately transform the mind into the purified mind of a Buddha. He clearly describes how consciousnesses operate in everyday perception and how at the time of Buddhahood, these same consciousnesses express the five primordial wisdoms of the five Buddha families.

In his usual, inimitably clear and simple way, Khenchen Rinpoche sets forth the nature of what knows and what it is that is known. A bit of a steep dive into Buddhist philosophy for an absolute beginner, but a very necessary one nonetheless.
