Heart of Meditation: Discovering Innermost Awareness by Dalai Lama

The Dalai Lama teaches Dzogchen, an advanced meditation practice, through a visionary poem by the 19th-century saint Patrul Rinpoche, in a book prepared with Jeffrey Hopkins.

He connects training the mind in compassion with the pinnacle of Buddhist meditation, and explains how to identify innermost awareness, maintain contact with it and release oneself from the stream of thoughts.
