Light Comes Through: Buddhist Teachings on Awakening to Our Natural Intelligence

Buddhahood, says Dzigar Kongtr l, is nothing but an unobstructed experience of the nature of mind, boundlessly spacious and limitlessly compassionate. The trick is that in order to see the mind accurately, we must use the particular aspect of mind he calls natural intelligence.

Inexcusably Heavily Marked Copy

xx Love this author/Buddhist writer. Look forward to reading a readable copy.

Illuminating

Kongtrul packs a lot into this slender book(all 121 pages), taking on anger( anger provides us only with the illusion of clarity), attachment(makes us dependent upon objects for fullfillment), and attributes(we do not own them, they come from many sources). The book is gracefully written and comes from his heart. A book to read, highlight, and read again.

The answers I've been looking for.

Light Comes Through offers just that...light! It answers all those questions that never seem to have direct answers concerning jealousy, relationships, insecurity, and where buddhas come from. After reading this book, I took a step forward on my path. :O) Thank you Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche. You have served well. I wish you never ending happiness and a long life.
