Book Summary
Matricheta's "Letter to the Great King Kanishka" (the Maharaja-kanishka-lekha) and Chandragomin's "Letter to a Disciple" (the Shishya-lekha) awaken us to the very real possibility of liberation in this lifetime. Presented as epistles, a teaching form well established in Indian and Tibetan Buddhism, these inspiring letters encourage us to look fearlessly at the workings of karma in our lives and offer instruction in how to free ourselves from its chains. Includes original sources: Tibetan text of Matricheta's work and the Sanskrit mss. for Chandragomin's letter, with notes translated from Tibetan commentaries, analysis of vocabulary, bibliography, and index.
