Description: The Light of Wisdom, will be of special interest to students of Buddhism for its clear overview from a Vajrayana perspective of teachings particular to Hinayana and Mahayana Buddhism. The book is a combination of three texts:
The Gradual Path of the Wisdom Essence (Lamrim Yeshe Nyingpo) is a record of oral teachings of Padmasambhava, transcribed by his chief female disciple, Yeshe Tsogyal. Padmasambhava, known as the Second Buddha, is renowned for establishing the tantric teachings of Buddhism in Tibet during the ninth century. He predicted that his oral teachings, concealed in the form of termas, or "hidden treasures," would be revealed at an appropriate future time. The Lamrim Yeshe Nyingpo is a sacred scripture of this terma literature.
The Light of Wisdom is an extensive commentary on the above text, by Jamgon Kongtrul the Great, one of the most prominent Buddhist masters of nineteenth-century Tibet.
Entering the Path of Wisdom consists of annotations on the commentary by Jamyang Drakpa, a student of Jamgon Kongtrul, and recorded by Jokyab Rinpoche.
