The teachings of the Buddha have come to the West in many languages from many cultures. In this book, you will see page after page of Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo's presentations of the Buddha's teachings in prose and poetry, in song and in practices designed for Western students. Since Jetsunma began teaching over 35 years ago, she has made Buddhism meaningful in the English language in a way that is compatible with and accessible to Western culture. The words are an expression of the very fabric of her being. Jetsunma is here to teach, to guide, and to inspire us to discover our Buddha nature, the universal truth--to live in accordance with that truth, and to help others in whatever way she can.
