<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In this classic of 20th-century spiritual literature, a Tibetan meditation master offers an inspiring vision for our time based on the ideal of the sacred warrior. This book describes the warrior's path for contemporary men and women in search of practical wisdom that they can put to use in their everyday lives.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>The classic guide to enlightened living that first presented the Buddhist path of the warrior to a Western audience</b> <p/>There is a basic human wisdom that can help solve the world's problems. It doesn't belong to any one culture or region or religious tradition--though it can be found in many of them throughout history. It's what Chögyam Trungpa called the sacred path of the warrior. The sacred warrior conquers the world not through violence or aggression, but through gentleness, courage, and self-knowledge. The warrior discovers the basic goodness of human life and radiates that goodness out into the world for the peace and sanity of others. <p/>Interpreting the warrior's journey in contemporary terms, Trungpa shows that, in discovering the basic goodness of human life, the warrior learns to radiate that goodness out into the world for the peace and sanity of others. That's what the Shambhala teachings are all about--and this is the book that has been presenting them to a wide and appreciative audience for more than twenty years. <p/></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Trungpa's warrior is a most appealing figure, embodying qualities that every spiritual tradition would hold dear. The principal discipline recommended here--being genuine moment after moment--allows one to discover the magic inherent in phenomena, where the synchronization of body and mind becomes an attunement to the natural order."--<i>Yoga Journal</i> <p/>"Trungpa's clear-headed vision shows us that celebrating life is based on appreciating ourselves. This book is a masterpiece of clarity and insight."--<i>East West Journal</i> <p/> <i> </i>"<i>Shambhala</i> provides a clear depiction of the results and, thus, the reasons for meditation practice as a source of strength for daily living and spiritual growth."--<i>Body, Mind & Spirit</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Chögyam Trungpa (1940-1987)--meditation master, teacher, and artist--founded Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado, the first Buddhist-inspired university in North America; the Shambhala Training program; and an international association of meditation centers known as Shambhala International. He is the author of numerous books including <i>Shambhala: The Sacred Path of the Warrior</i>, <i>Cutting Through Spiritual Materialism</i>, and <i>The Myth of Freedom</i>.
