Heart Jewel - The Essential Practices of Kadampa Buddhism

Kadampa Buddhism is a special presentation of Buddha's Mahayana teachings that makes the path to enlightenment accessible to the modern world and explains clearly how to transform our lives into the spiritual path.

The author, a meditation master of this living tradition founded by the great Buddhist masters Atisha and Je Tsongkhapa, explains two essential spiritual practices. The first is a special meditation practice in conjunction with Je Tsongkhapa, through which we can receive blessings and gain the realizations of the path to enlightenment. The second is meditation on the Buddha of Wisdom in the aspect of a Dharma Protector, whereby we gain the necessary internal strength to overcome all obstacles to our spiritual practice.
