"This is one of my favourite books by Ngakpa Chogyam, or indeed of any other contemporary buddhist teacher. The writing is incredibly clear, exploring very sophisticated ideas and Tibetan terms in ways that are always engaging and light.

It offers a way into these meditation practices through engaged theory - this isn't just academic, but is teaching based on practice, and practice that the author wants to share. It is worth reading several times over, for new insights and inspiration. 

I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who has perhaps some experience of meditation and curiosity about Tibetan buddhism and / or dzogchen."
