Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. This is a near fine condition soft cover, very bright presentation, internally clean and NOT marked. QUOTED in relevant part from the inside flap: "Geshe Rabten was a lama famed for the sheer intensity of his study, debate, and practice. His life story has become a modern inspirational classic, the significance of his work in bringing Buddhism to the West is undisputed. But there is a period in his life about which he chose to always remain silent - and this is the subject matter of Song. 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 teachers, 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 Tulku as one of Geshe Rabten's 'most essential literary works.' The direct outcome of his own meditational experience, Song is the extraordinary, deeply personal writing of one of Tibet's great modern masters." SHIPS from Eugene, Oregon, USA. Location: case.
