Title: RECALLING CHOGYAM TRUNGPA.
Description: Boston & London, Shambala , 2005. 1st edition 481 pp. Pb. In wide-ranging essays and interviews, contributors from the fields of Buddhist practice and scholarship, philosophy, the arts, and literature examine the work of master Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche (1939-1987). A pioneer in introducing Buddhism to the West, Trungpa Rinpoche had a distinct knack for breaking down the cultural, historical, and ideological barriers that make any such transmission so difficult today. His skill at communicating in a living language to Western students, while remaining faithful to the traditional origins of Buddhism, was paired with an understanding of the modern world of unusual relevance. Illustrated with a few b/w photographs. Top cover shows minor wear. Otherwise nice and clean copy
