Song of the Profound View: A Translation of Song of the Profound View: The Razor that Cuts Down the Enemies of Desire and Hatred, and its Commentary Entitled Some Relflections on the Meaning of the Profound View (A Wisdom Intermediate Book - White Series) - Softcover
Synopsis
Song of the Profound View is Geshe Rabten's own account of his long retreat in Dharamsala in the late 1960's into the meaning of the profound view-"emptiness" according to the highest philosophical tenets. His progress and insights, the advice he received from his teacher, Trijang Dorje Chang and the Dalai Lama, philosophical reflections, moments of caution, joy, despair and deepening compassion were set down in twelve short verses interwoven with anecdotes from day-to-day life in a song of awareness and realization. These verses, translated here with their autocommentary, have been described by Gonsar Tulkuk as one of Geshe Rabten's "most essential works". The direct outcome of his own meditational experience, Song is the extraordinary, deeply personal writing of one of Tibet's great modern masters.
