Description

Mahamudra is the first English translation of a major Tibetan Buddhist presentation of the theory and practice of meditation-a manual detailing the various stages and practices for training the advanced students. The original Tibetan text of nearly 800 pages was composed by Takpo Tashi Namgyal (1512-87), a great lama and a scholar of the Kagyu sect of Tibetan Buddhism. (Reprinted)
