About the Author:
"What makes his teaching immediately transcend sectarian parameters is his compassion, intelligence, modesty, and wit--that wonderful, unarguable quality of clarity and love that radiates through the Dalai Lama's words.... [He] is practically impish in his delight with inserting little jokes and wisecracks in the midst of his high tantric commentary--little twinkles from the Dharmakaya of the Happy Buddhas. Whether one browses, peruses, or studies this text, it's certain some degree of transmission will twinkle its way from the heart of the Dalai Lama into our own precious mental continuums."--Independent Publisher
The Dalai Lama is a remarkable Buddhist teacher and scholar. He lives in Dharamsala, India.
His Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama is considered the foremost Buddhist leader of our time. The exiled spiritual head of the Tibetan people, he is a Nobel Peace Laureate, a Congressional Gold Medal recipient, and a remarkable teacher and scholar who has authored over one hundred books.

Combining the essential aspects of the sutra path with the profound tantric techniques that activate the latent spiritual forces within us, it lays the framework of the entire Buddhist path and sets down the guidelines for undertaking a complete form of practice on a daily basis. Tantric meditation depends largely upon inspiration, and this practice taps the inspiration of unbroken lineage. Guru Yoga is an important aspect of the tantric practice of Mahayana Buddhism and the foundation on which the whole tantric structure is built; it is also the force that gives vitality to a practitioner's meditation. Unlike other systems, tantric meditation depends largely upon inspiration transmitted in an unbroken lineage through a living person, the teacher. Who better than the Dalai Lama can provide a proper understanding of this practice for Tibetan Buddhists.
