### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    beautifully done
  

*by Y***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2017*

This is a beautifully done book.  It has all that's needed to appreciate the rich context of the many stories about that great master Patrul Rinpoche.  There are three forewords including one by the Dalai Lama.  There is an index, not to be expected in a book of this sort.  There's a glossary, an intricate chart of Rinpoche's spiritual lineage and a chart of his family tree to date.  There are forty-eight pages of brief biographical sketches of important masters and disciples of Patrul Rinpoche as well as, in Ricard's words, sketches of 'several important earlier figures who played an influential role in Patrul Rinpoche's life'.  There are sources for the stories themselves, sources for the biographical notes and sources for written works in Tibetan and in English.  These sources are very interesting and informative to look into. There are forty illustrations including a map of eastern Tibet, Patrul Rinpoche's stomping grounds, and a picture of the young and handsome Nyoshul Khenpo before his sad and premature decline in health.  There are ten 'gems of spiritual advice found in Patrul Rinpoche's own writings'  -  gems indeed they are!  These gems are easily identified in the table of contents by 'small ornamental guillemets' and in the text by italicized titles and guillemets.  The exceptional thoroughness of Ricard's presentation in this book might have been anticipated from the equally exceptional presentation in his translation of the autobiography of Shabkar.

    Inspirational
  

*by M***L on Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2021*

Fabulous book. Short  inspiring stories from Payrul Rinpoche’s life, some quite humorous. Each story a teaching! Well worth the money.  Pith instructions on Dzogchen and Mahamudra.

    I LOVE this book!!!!
  

*by R***S on Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2019*

I had no idea who Patrul Rimpoche was and now am delighted to have read this book!!! It is fast and easy to read. It is filled with delightful short stories of Patrul's adventures that share about the true nature of a prayerful man who gave up everything for faith and teaching people the way to happiness and God.
