Dzigar Kongtrül is a highly accomplished lama who received intensive traditional training from some of the greatest masters of the last century.

In the words of Sogyal Rinpoche: "Dzigar Kongtrül Rinpoche has written an enthralling and practical book that speaks to us all with an exceptional clarity about confusion, uncertainty, and fear, about fearlessness and courage, and about awareness, joy, sanity, and freedom. A book I cannot recommend highly enough."
