Description
A collection of poetry from the author, a long time Dharma student who uses Buddhist lojong slogans, a famous group of Buddhist teachings, for inspiration and structure; the slogans were originally translated for inclusion in the book The Path to Awakening by Marga Ret's teacher and Tibetan Buddhist lineage holder the 14th Shamar Rinpoche. To accompany all the slogans, Marga Ret has composed poetry that creates an avenue for readers to sink into the slogans and stay with them. Both the slogans and the corresponding poetry have been included in this book, as well as art from the author's husband, posthumously, a remarkable artist, David Crouch.
