Four Essential Buddhist texts

Dalai-Lama, Xiv

For centuries, Dharma students have traditionally studied Nagarjuna?s letter to a Friend, for it provides a concise and thorough introduction to the entire Buddhist path practice. By examining the Four Noble Truths and the Six perfections, Nagarjune describes logically and poetically the internal patterns of experience which leads a person to Buddhahood.  Nagarjuna wrote this letter to his friend King Satavahana, in order to alert him to the worldly impurities, especially in discharging his royal activities, and to integrate spiritual values into his daily life. In this respect, his advice is still of special interest to those who wish to cultivate a religious practice while continuing to live and work in society.  The commentary accompanying Nagarjuna?s epistle was composed by Venerable Rendawa, Zhon-nu Lo-Dro. This famous scholar hailed from the great ?Sa-skya? monastery in north central Tibet. During the intial period of their relationship, he served as a teacher to the renowned Tsong-Khapa, later, they instructed each other. Rendawa?s commentary is quite clear and simple, and suitable for all levels of students.  This book teaches the basics of Buddhist religious practice for beginners and advanced students, both laymen and monk.

A Stairway for Ascending to Tusita Buddha-field  This work entitled "Meditations on the Lower Tantras" from the collected works of the Dalai Lamas makes no attempt to deal with the philosophical aspects of the Lower Tantras. Rather, its aim is simply to present a range of meditation manuals from the first stage of these systems. It should be noted here that most practitioners of the Higher Tantras also practice the Lower Tantras either from time to time or as a lifetime daily meditational endeavor. The First Dalai Lama, for example, a renowned practitioner of the Kalachakra Tantra, was even more famous for his applications to the Tara and Amitayus systems. Almost every Tibetan Yogi today practices a daily sadhana of one or more of the Lower Tantra deities dealt with within the covers of this work
