Wish Fulfilling Jewel

This is a sweet book by a wonderful teacher. If you are drawn to it then it is a good book for you -- and "a customer" gives a good description in his/her review.

Simply the best book I've ever read. It's seems that we are part of the audience, receiving the most profound and precious teachings from the ultimate wisdom Buddha nature of the peerless master Dilgo K.Rinpoche. Really awesome!

I agree completely with the two previous reviews, and have only one point to add. For students of Tibetan Buddhism who are actually doing the Guru Yoga practice of the Longchen Nyingthig Ngondro, this is a priceless handbook to suppliment and remind them of their own teacher's instructions. It makes an excellent companion to "Words of My Perfect Teacher", Patrul Rimpoche's guide to the entire Ngondro practice.

Whether a newcomer to meditation, or more specifically to guru yoga in the Tibetan Nyingma tradition - or a somewhat more experienced practitioner, this book is extraordinary. If you are new to this kind of mediation, I would say it is one of the best guides into it (as a follow-up to your master's introduction and empowerment, of course). If you have practised guru yoga for a while, you have in your hands a treasury of inspiration. You will be able to dig into it again and again, and still go deeper. If a book can transmit the wisdom-mind of a buddhist master, this is it! H.H. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche is right there with you.

This is one of the best books I've ever read about how to carry the basic practices of Tibetan Buddhism into daily life. It tells how to consider the nearness of the "guru", or teacher, during sleep, while eating, walking, and all the time, bringing compassion and devotion into every moment. This book is truly about having a "love affair" with your spiritual practice. It's written by one of the most revered tibetan teachers in a language that's emotional, accessible and not overly scholarly. At the same time it addresses specific issues of great importance to the Longchen Nyingtik Ngondro, one of the "preliminary practices" of Tibetan Buddhism. Read, reread and enjoy!
