Profound Reverberations of a brilliant life

In brief, this book is chockful of great ideas about what Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche--the late transplanter of Tibetan Buddhism to the West--was doing and teaching... what he might have thought he was doing in the bigger picture and how he did it. If you are interested in questions about why the ancient path of Tibetan Buddhism is of timely value in our world, and what is the true heart of this tradition... you must read this book. Many insightful people who had contact with VCTR make efforts her to put their understanding and experience of him in a nutshell, and the result is, well, enlightening.
