A clear and simple approach to understanding life

In my 30 years of study and research of the great works of Buddhism, I have not found a more direct, simple and reader friendly study of the great tenets of Tibetan Buddhism. Lama Mi-Pham a renowned teacher of his age, gave this special study to his regions King. This book lays out the details of how this leader, and each of us, can best deal with the day to day issues of life, love, government and family.It speaks clearly to each of us. If this is the sort of book you enjoy sinking your teeth in, this book in particular will bring you much to ponder, and is one you will want to re-read any number of times.
