Reviews
"With her usual clarity and humour venerable Tubten Chodron delivers a first rate exposition of the theory and practice of Action Tantra basing herself on the sadhana of Thousand-Armed Chenrezig. Her clear and helpful explanation are certainly of great benefit for all of us on the Vajrayana path." Ven. Tenzin Palmo."
