A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

"A user's manual for the human psyche! Geshe Tashi Tsering is great at making difficult material accessible. Buddhist Psychology provides kind and practical guidance for analyzing and transforming your mind." (Lorne Ladner, author of The Lost Art of Compassion)

"Here, Buddhism's unique, time-tested way of viewing the mind is explained so that followers can understand their anger and aversion and develop equanimity, patience, and love." (Eastern Horizon)

"With this series of books drawn from his highly successful courses, Geshe Tashi's insights can be enjoyed by a wide audience of both specialists and newcomers to the Buddhist tradition. His presentations, never divorced from the basic humanity and warmth of his personality, combine rigor and accessibility." (Thupten Jinpa, principal translator for the Dalai Lama and director of the Institute of Tibetan Classics)

"Although coming from a traditional Gelugpa presentation of the Buddhist path, these books are written for a modern western audience, and therefore 'happiness' is presented as a principle goal, alongside the more traditional goal of enlightenment. The author's personal tone and his fluent language, combined with his obvious mastery of the material help to make the series a tremendously valuable resource for the study of basic Buddhist teachings from a Tibetan perspective." (Buddhadharma)
