Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Fresh and direct Buddhist teachings on how our natural wish to be happy is the best tool we have for true spiritual growthLight Comes Through explores the mind’s intricate relationship with emotions through the lens of Buddhist teachings. Dzigar Kongtrül emphasizes the significance of understanding and cultivating the mind’s “natural intelligence,” a vital tool for discerning beneficial actions and navigating life’s complexities. Natural intelligence enables one to discriminate between what helps or hinders. But most of all, it’s the part that searches for happiness and meaning. Dzigar Kongtrül demonstrates how to skillfully use that wish for happiness as a tool in awakening to the joyous wisdom of mind.The book provides invaluable insight into overcoming the habitual patterns that cloud judgment and hinder personal growth. By engaging with concepts such as shenpa (self-clinging) and lenchak (karmic debt), readers can develop emotional intelligence and cultivate healthier relationships. Kongtrül’s teachings encourage a shift from self-centeredness to a mindset that places others at the center, fostering genuine love and care. Filled with wisdom and practical teachings, this book is a call to action for individuals yearning to harness their “natural intelligence” and embrace the transformative power of awareness.“This is a wonderful fresh look at the amazing potential of our human mind.” —Pema Chödrön, author of When Things Fall Apart
