Reviews"Sogyal Rinpoche...has delivered the Tibetan equivalent of The Divine Comedy. One could imagine that this is what Dante might have written had he been a Buddhist metaphysician rather than a Christian poet." --New York Times Book Review "Rinpoche's teachings have much to offer....

In its power to touch the heart, to awaken consciousness, it is an inestimable gift."--San Francisco Chronicle Book Review
