Light of Wisdom: Volume I (discounted)

This book has been discounted 15% due to slight creases/damage to the front cover at the bottom, and to a few pages near near the bottom of the book. The book is brand new, damage occured during display setup at the store. 

Volume I contains the root terma—hidden treasure text—of Padmasambhava, The Gradual Path of the Wisdom Essence and its commentary The Light of Wisdom by Jamgon Kongtrul the Great. Annotations on the commentary Entering the Path of Wisdom spoken by Jamyang Drakpa and recorded by Jokyab Rinpoche are included as well as clarifications from other masters.

Volume I presents in-depth explanations of the Vajrayana Buddhist perspective. It begins with the nature of the ground, the Buddha nature present in all beings, continues with the teachings that are common to all vehicles, and concludes with the Mahayana and the link to Vajrayana.
