These deeply personal songs of realization by Nyingmapa yogi Shabkar Tshogdruk Rangdrol (1781–1851), composed in a simple yet richly poetic style, charm by their beauty and directness, often expressing the delights of nature. Drawn from the vast and mostly untranslated collection, The Festival of Melodious Songs, they have been organized thematically to reflect Shabkar's quest for spiritual awareness through renouncing the world and meditating in mountain hermitages.

Kum Nye Dancing presents 75 new Kum Nye postures, movements, and series of dances. The practices are dynamic, dramatic; they emphasize the transformative power of yoga, helping us make real and meaningful changes in our energy levels, patience, tolerance, and physical and mental flexibility. Kum Nye is the art of making friends with all experience: as we learn through its practices to work gently and precisely with the body, awareness merges with experience, illuminating potential.

The Triratna Peace Bell - Remembering the Holy Places of the Buddha

With the book Revelations of Mind we begin an inquiry into the mystery of mind and how its operations affect our well-being. When we know more about how mind works, we can understand what runs our life. The opportunity to learn from experience is among the most precious benefits life offers. But our experience is more than the thoughts, emotions and events that stand out in memory; it encompasses the most subtle interactions of senses, brains, mind and consciousness. In Revelations of Mind the author helps us explore the human mind from the perspective of inner experience. Mind is much more complex than we can imagine, and the mental patterns and structures that shape our lives and our choices are so basic we may not even notice them. There are patterns of mind. There are patterns of language. There are patterns of concerns and emotions. Are we ready to ask how these patterns get set up and how they operate? In releasing it for publication, the author has said, "Our mind is the creator of all we experience, yet we suffer for we do not understand the creator or the creation. But if we can closely contact the processes by which mind generates experience, we can give ease to our mind and appreciate the true nature of our embodiment. We can make our mind our best friend and our most reliable companion."

This new book, collecting and integrating a wide range of materials into a coherent whole, provides a long-awaited key to engaging this revolutionary new vision and to unlocking the treasures it holds.

Drawing on his many years of interacting with Westerners, Tarthang Tulku engages a whole range of important and helpful topics, from the 4 immeasurables to joy as the foundation of the path to the nonduality of subject and object. Written in the form of an extended interview, Dimensions of Mind is very user-friendly. Reading it, you have the sense that you are sitting in on a conversation with a friend who just happens to be the wisest and most supportive person you've ever met. There are 20 exercises, from ‘Panoramic Seeing' to ‘Building Positive Energy' to ‘Thoughts without Ownership'. The text is accessible, yet able to challenge and clarify important points of meditative and spiritual practice for longer term practitioners.

Alternative Medicine

How is our experience being produced, moment to moment? Could it ever be different? In a series of short but penetrating essays, Tibetan lama Tarthang Tulku examines how language and perception condition our sense of reality, and how ‘I’, ‘me’ and ‘mind’ both facilitate and limit our understanding of ourselves. A closer look at time and the operations of mind opens up a startling possibility: our ability to contact transformative knowledge may be far greater than we realize. Using simple, accessible language to address complex and challenging themes drawn from years of study with the masters of his tradition, Tarthang Tulku takes reads on a journey to the heart of human experience.

Personal Transformation

Our bodies may seem ordinary, but they offer us an extraordinary opportunity to explore the play of space and time. Using a dialogue format and a conversational tone, Volume One of the Lotus Trilogy explores the inner mystery that inhabits our most familiar experiences, as Adam, Sophie, and Lucius discus the nature of shape and form, and the roles played by time and space in everything that appears. The Lotus trilogy, a new series about knowledge, experience and the mind, was created by Tibetan Lama Tarthang Tulku for readers of all backgrounds and perspectives. No specialized knowledge is required – only a willingness to take a journey of the mind.
