Mahamudra Tantra: The Supreme Heart Jewel Nectar Paperback – Illustrated, October 1, 2005

Geshe Kelsang Gyatso's exquisite book Mahamudra Tantra, is a practical guide to discovering the real meaning of human life. Mahamudra Tantra is a quick method for attaining elightenment, a state of existence that is free from suffering, and the instructions for qualified Tantric practice are extremely profound. Geshe Kelsang Gyatso explains them in such a clear manner, that those who have never heard of the word Tantra before picking up this book, will have an immediate understanding of what Tantra is, and why developing a strong foundation of basic correct view and good intention is essential.Geshe Kelsang Gyatso dispells many of the myths and confusion associated with Tantra, and explains the real meaning of Tantra, how to transform our attachment into the spiritual path. He gives a very specific definition of Tantra: an inner realization that functions to prevent ordinary appearances and conceptions and to accomplish the four complete purities (pure environment, body, enjoyments and activities.)I found these instructions so helpful living in today's modern world. It seems to be so easy to get sucked into all the distractions of daily life, and this book presents a methodology that allows us to have a pure and more meaningful experience of the world while still engaging in our normal, everyday activities like going to work, being in a relationship, spending time with family etc..I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in gaining a deep, profound experience of meditation and learning more about Tantra, what it is, and why it is the quick path to enlightenment.

ever since my tour in Vietnam as an Veteran and my view upon the great stature of the Buddha my mind became opened or as the one who became the buddha " I have become awaken", this book was one I thought to like.

Just it is a beautiful book. I have faith in BUDDHA , and this book very well translated to English.the author Geshe Kelsang Gyatso has a great skill and dedication.I recommend to everyone how want to improve there self and find inner peace.Pease look anther book also from this great author. I almost have everyone.

This book proved an invaluable tool for me while recently attending a 14 day Mahamudra retreat given by Gen Tharchin, one of the author's first western students, having studied under Geshe-la for 35 years.The power of the written instructions when combined with a qualified Mahamudra master can bring immeasurable benefit to the practitioner.

another great book by a great auther

Great price, great condition.

I am enjoying the DVD immensely, as it enables me to listen while resting my eyes. The practices become very clear and I can feel the progress. Thank you.

Unbelievable clear and beautiful teachings by a qualified Mahamudra mediation master. I rejoice in the good fortune of anyone who reads this books and puts these teachings into practice

A rare and exceptional book that has the power to really transform life positively in an ultra powerful way. subtle and complex ! To keep secret.Un livre rare et exceptionnel qui a le pouvoir de transformer réellement la vie positivement et d'une manière ultra puissante. À garder secret pour l'entourage.

Another remarkable book by a true Vajra Master. My advice would be to read it and make up your own mind. Unlike others who are suggesting you avoid it - unlike they did of course!?! Please be grown up and come to your own conclusions and don't be swayed by confused minds that are set on bitching about others....very sad and an even sadder reflection of their own practice.
