This splendid resource for Ch d practitioners contains the Ch d sadhana written by the Fourteenth Karmapa. This daily practice text is given in three versions- Tibetan, a phonetic rendering of the Tibetan, and English translation. Jamg n Kongtr l's commentary on the sadhana supplies necessary amplification and clarification; it is given both in English and Tibetan. An important feature of the commentary is the inclusion of illustrations for the different stages of visualization discussed within the commentary. All in all, this is an essential practice tool and reference guide for the serious Ch d practitioner.
Jamg n Kongtr l (1813_x0096_1899) was a versatile and prolific scholar. He has been characterized as a "Tibetan Leonardo" because of his significant contributions to religion, education, medicine, and politics.
