Description
Perhaps the most widely known and loved deity throughout the Buddhist world, Chenrezig (Avalokiteshvara) is the Buddha of Compassion. The meditation practice in this book is presented as a useful manual for ease of practice. A down-to-earth commentary by popular author Thubten Chodron offers instructions and tips on making the practice even more relevant to daily life.
Author Biography
Thubten Chodron, an American-born Tibetan Buddhist nun, travels worldwide, teaching and leading meditation retreats. Known for her clear and practical explanations of the Buddha's teachings, she is the author of Buddhism for Beginners; Working with Anger; How to Free Your Mind; Open Heart, Clear Mind; and Taming the Mind.

Reviews"With her usual clarity and humour venerable Tubten Chodron delivers a first rate exposition of the theory and practice of Action Tantra basing herself on the sadhana of Thousand-Armed Chenrezig. Her clear and helpful explanation are certainly of great benefit for all of us on the Vajrayana path." Ven. Tenzin Palmo."
