Overview
"This book and CD set presents Buddhist instructions for changing our negative thoughts and feelings to a positive, loving attitude toward everyone. By bringing images and thoughts of the Buddhist deity of loving-kindness to mind, our hearts connect with the Buddha's and our activities become beneficial and helpful. The CDs present Tulku Thondup guiding an extended meditation practice which is a traditional ritual of visualizing and invoking the blessings of the Buddha of Loving-Kindness. The book includes teachings on the Buddhist view of loving kindness, the philosophy behind Tibetan Buddhist visualization and prayer practices, and basics of Tibetan Buddhist philosophy. The package includes a full-color illustration of Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of Loving-Kindness, for help with the visualization. Praise for Previous Books: 'Thondup's book is deceptively simple-the work of a great teacher who has penetrated this material so deeply he can present it with clarity that spiritual seekers of any level can grasp' - ""New Age Journal"". 'This healing path is a spiritual practice, a way to transform our very lives' - Daniel Goleman, author of ""Emotional Intelligence""."
