4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. and portray the brilliance of the great Jonangpa master Dolpopa with graceBy Clarke WarrenThis is a masterful work on a tradition of Tibetan Buddhism that has been largely overlooked by Western scholars in the past. Perhaps this is because the Jonang tradition; based in the practice and view of the Kalachakra (Wheel of Time) Tantra; was severally suppressed in the 17th Century by the Central Tibetan government and monastic hierarchy; because it did not match their prescribed view of the Buddhist teachings. But the Jonang tradition survived; and is a strong force again today; particularly in Eastern Tibet and among many exiled Buddhist teachers. It is based in the teachings of Buddha Nature as the fundamental nature of all beings; and the inherent qualities associated with the realization of that nature. Cyrus Stearn's translations and commentaries are masterful; and portray the brilliance of the great Jonangpa master Dolpopa with grace; depth and clarity.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
