{"product_id":"9781611800395","title":"On the Path to Enlightenment: Heart Advice from the Great Tibetan Masters","description":"\u003cp\u003eDilgo Khyentse Rinpoche inspired Matthieu Ricard to create this anthology by telling him that “when we come to appreciate the depth of the view of the eight great traditions [of Tibetan Buddhism] and also see that they all lead to the same goal without contradicting each other, we think, ‘Only ignorance can lead us to adopt a sectarian view.’” Ricard has selected and translated some of the most profound and inspiring teachings from across these traditions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe selected teachings are taken from the sources of the traditions, including the Buddha himself, Nagarjuna, Guru Rinpoche, Atisha, Shantideva, and Asanga; from great masters of the past, including Thogme Zangpo, the Fifth Dalai Lama, Milarepa, Longchenpa, and Sakya Pandita; and from contemporary masters, including the Fourteenth Dalai Lama and Mingyur Rinpoche. They address such topics as the nature of the mind; the foundations of taking refuge, generating altruistic compassion, acquiring merit, and following a teacher; view, meditation, and action; and how to remove obstacles and make progress on the path.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shambhala","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47031405674736,"sku":"9781611800395","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781611800395_p0.jpg?v=1763842883","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781611800395","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
