TIBETAN MEDITATION by TARTHANG TULKU

RATING B-
Free to pop into the town library, this is one of the half dozen books that I carried home with me.  If I had no time limit, I would have benefitted more from reading it - however I have only three weeks in which to read 6 books - so 'rushed' through. I could get them out on repeat loan, but I have just had 2 new books arrive and bought two from the library book sale in person and another two from the online book sale....

This book is a great coverage of Tibetan meditation. Although I have followed several Buddhist styles, Tibetan Buddhism is my main focus and if I had read this book 1-2 years ago, I would have benefitted even more than reading it now - at a time when some of this is already practiced in person and ingrained. It is a very good book if you are starting out with an interest in meditation, especially if you lean towards Buddhism or Tibetan matters. I would definitely reccomend it.

RATING C-

I wasn't sure what this book was about til I read it - but I thought it might be helpful to me with ideas on how to fix my father's downer, considering it is supposed to deal with fear and suffering...

There was not much of use to my purpose, but I could relate to days 16, 31, 53, and 67 for myself. (I did not find much use in the latter days suggestions, as these went against my Buddhist principles.)
