The History of Buddhism in India
In 1991 Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche accompanied a group of western Buddhist students to each of the four major pilgrimage sites from the life of the Buddha (Bodhgaya, Sarnath, Kushinagar, and Lumbini). This book contains the teachings Rinpoche gave to the group at each pilgrimage site. So here the reader not only sees history and pictures of these major Buddhist sites but also Rinpoche’s teaching of the significance of each.
A Spiritual Biography of Marpa the Translator
Marpa was a Tibetan who risked his life three times to go to India and learn and practice the profound Buddhist teachings from the great yogi Naropa. This book tells the story of how he received these teachings and brought them back to Tibet, where he achieved enlightenment. Soon afterwards, the Muslim invasion of India began, and many of these teachings were destroyed and lost in the Noble Land.
A Daily Practice of Chö
This very practical, detailed and illustrated guide specifically describes the practice of the shorter Chö liturgy of Kagyu tradition: A Concise Daily Practice of Offering One’s Body (རྒྱུན་ཁྱེར་གྱི་ལུས་སྦྱིན་བསྡུས་པ།). However, it is so informative that it will be of use to all Chö practitioners. The original edition, published in 2008 as Chö: The Garden of All Joy & Generosity of the Body, has now been revised, updated and amended.
