It is wonderfully heartfelt and readable studies of the works of the DalaiLamas. The Second Dalai Lama's mystical poems and lyrical visions arepermeated with ecstasy of enlightenment and born of selflessness.The Tibetan tradition of mystical verse is brought stunningly to life byrenowned translator Glenn Mullin through these spontaneous outpourings ofthe ecstasy of enlightenment. Prefaced by a readable and comprehensiveintroduction to the life and times of this wise exponent of spiritualknowledge, these poems are shining, lyric illuminations of Buddhist life.Each is prefaced by a translator's preamble.
