Exposing the Essence of Mind
Lama Tsering Everest
Death is a doorway, an opportunity to realize the true, pure nature of our mind--the very essence of our being. To take advantage of this opportunity, however, requires diligent preparation: we must train our minds to recognize and rest in our true nature, and shift our priorities, using every moment to realize the truth that transcends death and birth.

Transcending the Divided Mind
Lama Tsering Everest
Lama Tsering addresses the fundamental mistake in our perception of reality: perceiving ourselves as separate from everything and everyone around us. This mistake is the source of all suffering--war, sickness, aging, and death. However, the poisions of the mind that result from our confused perception are adventitious and can be transformed. By developing love and compassion, we can overcome self-absorption and reveal the perfect, absolute truth that is beyond division. Arcata, CA 2004.
