Tai Situ Way to Go (PDF)

Tai Situpa was one of the four regents of the Kagyu Lineage and in Thrangu Rinpoche and Khenpo Tsultrim’s first shedra at Rumtek. He has been teaching he speaks fluent English and has been teaching for 40 years, but very few of books of his teachings in English are available. 

            In Way to Go Tai Situ begins with an explanation the four seals which are the basis of the entire Buddhist path. Without understanding these, all later Buddhist topics will be incomplete.

            He then discusses refuge and bodhichitta including the four immeasurables, the six paramitas and the bodhisattva commitments in a very direct way and detailed way. We need to understand these to understand how we should conduct ourselves as Buddhist in the world.

            In the last half of this book, Tai Situ Rinpoche gives a detailed teaching on the Seven Points of Mind Training with each point covering an important aspect of our behavior in daily life and also in our meditation practice.

            This PDF is 106 pages long and includes 12 original calligraphies by Tai Situ Rinpoche.
