In this text, Gampopa clearly and simply covers the entire ground of Mahayana teachings, doing so from a "need to know" basis for meditators and sincere practitioners. It is the main Kagyu textbook, by its greatest founder, predicted by the Buddha himself. The course will be based on Ken and Katia's translation of this work - 'Gems of Dharma, Jewels of Freedom' - and also celebrating the publication of a new translation of it made by Ken for the prestigious Library of Tibetan Classics, under the patronage of HH the Dalai Lama.
