Divided into three parts, the book begins with a discussion about the open, inquisitive, and good-humored qualities of the "heart of the Buddha"--an "enlightened gene" that everyone possesses. Next, Chögyam Trungpa moves to the stages of the Buddhist path, presenting the three vehicles--Hinayana, Mahayana, and Vajrayana--that carry the Buddhist practitioner toward enlightenment. Finally, he describes the direct application of Buddhist teachings to topics as varied as relationships, drinking, children, and money. <p/><i>The Heart of the Buddha </i>reflects Trungpa's great appreciation for Western culture and deep understanding of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, which enabled him to teach Westerners in an effective, contemporary way.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Trungpa uses unexpected and surprising imagery which is often visceral and always striking.
