King of the Dharma: The Illustrated Life of Je Tsongkapa, Teacher of the First Dalai Lama

0/5 ( ratings)

Ancient wisdom that we can each put into practice in our own daily life! The Dalai Lamas of Tibet, over the past six centuries, have been some of the most influential spiritual figures in the entire world. Few people know how the lineage first began, with the extraordinary Tibetan master named Je Tsongkapa . He trained the first of the Dalai Lamas, and the world has never been the same. Up until this book, there has never been a complete and detailed story of the life of this extraordinary Buddhist master--one of the most important spiritual figures ever to walk this world. This luscious coffee-table art classic, with hundreds of color plates, includes three different parts: 1) The wonderful story of the discovery of 15 ancient paintings of Tsongkapa's life hidden in the attic of a Mongolian temple in New Jersey, in one of the first Buddhist communities which ever existed in the United States. 2) Color plates of more than 150 scenes from the paintings, with a translation of captions added by Jamyang Shepay Dorje , one of Tibet's greatest writers. 3) A special section on what these paintings mean to each one of us: how we ourselves can put into our personal meditations the amazing lessons found in the ancient paintings. The author, Geshe Michael, has also written the business bestseller The Diamond Cutter: The Buddha on Managing Your Business & Your Life, which tells the story of how he used ancient Buddhist principles to help found Andin International Diamond Corporation--a Manhattan company which went from zero to $250 million in annual sales, and was bought by super-investor Warren Buffett in 2009. King of the Dharma, an amazing classic of art and wisdom, shows us how to do the same.
