"A modern and thoroughly 'reader friendly' translation of 12th century Buddhist master Gampopa's root text, enhanced with contemplative contemporary commentaries ... Quality hardcover binding and an insert ribbon bookmark contribute to the practicality and durability of this edition, which is meant to be read, reread, and contemplated at length. The timeless wisdom of a Tibetan Buddhist master is superbly preserved and presented in this classic work." -- The Midwest Book Review, August 2006. "It is beautifully done and a real contribution to the literature. Gampopa is of course one of my favorite lineage master's, and I have been recommending the book to my students." -- Lama Surya Das
