Paperback, 351 pages
For the first time in print,
Music in the Sky
offers a series of the Karmapa's profound teachings, an extensive
selection of his poetry, and a detailed account of his life and flight
from his homeland. The amazing teaching and writing skills evident in
this work--particularly in light of the fact that the Karmapa is still
only 17 years old (in 2003)--will captivate readers.
Music in the Sky concludes
with brief biographies of all sixteen previous Karmapas, specially
composed for this collection by the highly respected Seventh Dzogchen
Ponlop Rinpoche.
Here, the reader will discover the compelling histories of the first Tibetan masters to be recognized as reincarnate lamas.
Music in the Sky presents
a definitive portrait of the Seventeenth Karmapa, strengthened and
illuminated by an authoritative depiction of his place in one of the
world's most revered lines of spiritual teachers.
