Forthcoming due November 2007. Tara is one of the most inspiring of Buddhist deities, embodying the most compelling and vital qualities of the feminine: beauty, grace, and the ability to nurture, care for, and protect. This complex goddess, whose practice transcends sect and class, is also a true spiritual warrior, vanuishing fear and ignorance. Skillful Grace is an elegant introduction to the practice and meditation techniques based on the Vajrayana path.
This book is divided into three main sections. The first contains the basic text of Tara practice, the Essential Instruction on the Threefold Excellence, which connects the seeker to the profound essence of Tara as revealed by Chokgyur Lingpa. The other two sections feature enlighteneing commentaries on the text by Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche, Jamgon Kongtrul, and Adeu Rinpoche.
Skillful Grace includes all the preliminaries of Tara practice, as well as its main part and the subsequent yogas.
