Comments on a New Book by Thubten Chodron

Cultivating a Compassionate Heart: The Yoga Method of Chenrezig

Perhaps the most widely known and loved deity throughout the Buddhist world, Chenrezig—also know as Avalokiteshvara, Kuan Yin, or Kannon—is the Buddha of Compassion. Buddhists turn to Chenrezig for protection, friendship, and inspiration on a daily basis. The meditation practice in this book—composed by a teacher with an extensive Western following—is presented as a useful manual for ease of practice. An enlightening—and often humorous—commentary by well-know author Thubten Chodron offers instructions and tips on making the practice even more relevant to daily life.

"With her usual clarity and humor Venerable Thubten Chodron delivers a first-rate exposition of the theory and practice of Action Tantra basing herself on the sadhana of the 1000 armed Chenrezig. Her clear and helpful explanations are certainly of great benefit for all of us on the Vajrayana path."—Venerable Tenzin Palmo
