Review:

Praise for The Buddha Book:

‘This is a very wonderful book with benefits for the mind, for finding inner peace, and generating compassion while learning how to benefit others and to love all equally. All these qualities can be gained from this book.’ Khen Rinpoche Lama Lhundrup, Abbot of Kopan Monastery Kathmandu, Nepal

‘In this book, Lillian Too brilliantly introduces the path to enlightenment by introducing readers to many of the Buddhas – emanations of wisdom, compassion, power, and all other positive qualities. Based on the teachings of her guru, Lama Kyabje Zopa Rinpoche, it offers us the perfect combination of spiritual authenticity and contemporary presentation.’ Dr Nicholas Ribush, Lama Yeshe Wisdom Archive
