Mind Training

The Tibetan practice of "mind training," or "lojong," stretches back for hundreds of years and encompasses a variety of techniques for cultivating altruistic thoughts and coping with the inevitable challenges of everyday life. "Mind Training: The Great Collection" is an English adaptation of the first anthology of these techniques. Presenting 44 of the original texts - including seminal works such as "Leveling out All Preconceptions" and "Eight Verses on Training the Mind" - "Mind Training" combines eloquent translations and historical commentaries to demonstrate how anyone can learn to exude love, compassion, and perseverance.
