The Collected Works of Chogyam Trungpa brings together the writings of one of the first and more influential Tibetan teachers to present Buddhism in the West. From his arrival in England in 1963 and America in 1970, Chogyam Trungpa was the author of thirteen books. Of these, ten appear in full in this collection. Lectures and poetry are also included, along with more than seventy articles. This extensive body of work illustrates that Trunga was a remarkably prolific teacher whose writings continue to attract great interest.
