<br> An intimate book, so clear and compassionate, you know you are listening to the unforgettable voice of Lama Yeshe, one of the great teachers of our time. --Sogyal Rinpoche, author of The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying <br> This book is based on Lama Yeshe's commentary on a guru-yoga practice (sadhana) created by H.H. the Dalai Lama, which revolves around the identity of one's teacher with Avolokiteshvara (Tibetan: Chenrezig). As editor Robina Courtin states in her preface, When Lama Yeshe taught, enlightenment was a real possibility. Something of this quality shines through the words on the pages of this book. [See also my comments about Lama Yeshe in my review of Becoming Vajrasattva.] Needless to say, this makes the present volume-apart from the abundance of insights contained in it-extremely valuable to the spiritually engaged reader. A wonderful offering to serious students by one of the twentieth-century's great meditation masters. -- Georg Feuerstein, Traditional Yoga Studies Interactive <br> Compassion is necessary for everyone. Particularly today, compassion is the only thing that can heal the problems we face. Lama Yeshe was one of the forefathers capable of translating Tibetan Buddhist thought not only through language, but by his presence, gestures, and way of life. He was a wonderful person who had the unique quality of conveying the true message of the union of compassion and wisdom--the great Mahamudra. --Gehlek Rimpoche, author of Good Life, Good Death <br> Lama Yeshe expresses the profundity of Buddha's teachings in a clear, penetrating, yet easily accessible way that that enables us to see ourselves and our Buddha potential. Through his instructions on The Inseparability of the Spiritual Master and Avalokiteshvara, we gain the confidence and skill to overcome our 'poor quality' self-image and transform ourselves into the Compassion Buddha. --Thubten Chodron, author of Buddhism for Beginners and Working with Anger <br> Many

No one has summarized the essence of tantra as well as Lama Yeshe does.
