Counsels from My Heart is one of the few volumes of teachings by Dudjom Rinpoche, a legendary meditation master of the Nyingma lineage of Tibetan Buddhism, to become available in English. It features talks to students presented in Dudjom Rinpoche's characteristically incisive and direct style, bringing the timeless heart-counsels of this great teacher vividly to life.

The term meditation is often spoken of as a single, uniform practice, but in fact there are innumerable techniques that can be employed to achieve different ends. However, to make real progress in any practice, the methods need to be paired with a view of how our minds and our experience of the world around us really work. In this uncommonly practical and experiential guide, Phakchok Rinpoche teaches us how to achieve this correct view so we can genuinely practice a meditation that will transform our lives by helping us abandon our own bad habits and hypocrisy.

Drawn from Tibet's rich contemplative literature, Buddhist Meditation offers classic exercises focused on the opportunities and challenges of life; cultivating inner calm; fostering a wider perspective on oneself in relationship to others; working with negative emotions, and the highest values of the Buddhist tradition, love and compassion.

Using the traditional Tibetan Buddhist framework of the Four Reminders—the preciousness of human birth, the truth of impermanence, the reality of suffering, and the inescapability of karma—Khandro Rinpoche explains why and how we could all better use this short life to pursue a spiritual path and make the world a better place. The book includes contemplative exercises that encourage us to appreciate the tremendous potential of the human body and mind.

Meditation has been around for centuries, especially for those in Eastern cultures. Over that last decade or so, meditation has found new popularity for people in Western cultures as a means to relax and de-stress. Even though meditation is not a new practice, it is still fairly new to those of us in the US. That’s why this book is here to teach those of us who weren’t raised in a culture that taught us about meditation and its benefits.

El Bardo thodol, más conocido en Occidente como El libro tibetano de los muertos, es una guía de instrucciones para los moribundos y los muertos que, según la creencia del budismo tántrico del Tíbet, permite alcanzar la iluminación durante el periodo inmediato posterior a la muerte y por algunos días más, a fin de evitar renacer e ingresar nuevamente al samsara, pues se considera que la muerte dura 49 días y después de ello sobreviene un renacimiento en el ciclo de la reencarnación.
