Diamond Sky is an accessible and practical account of the Buddhist
path for anyone wishing to understand the essential points of
Buddhism and gain a deeper understanding of the path to
enlightenment. Lama Jampa’s account traces Buddhism from its
origins to the present day, and explains in a clear and direct way
the essential teachings of Buddhism, starting with ‘taking
refuge’ in the Three Jewels of Buddha, dharma and sangha, and the
four contemplations that create a grounding for the Buddhist path
to freedom from our current state of suffering.Lama Jampa then
provides a profound step-by-step introduction to the meditations of
the Mahayana, by which one can develop loving kindness and
compassion, motivated by Bodhicitta - the altruistic resolve to
obtain the state of a Buddha for the benefit of beings. This lucid
account concludes with an insightful explanation of the purpose and
method of entry to the Vajrayana -the tantric teachings of the
Buddha- by which it is possible to attain the state of a Buddha in
this very lifetime. This precise and accessible introduction
succinctly illuminates the essence of the Buddhist path, an
invaluable reference for those wishing to obtain an overview of the
Buddhist path or to deepen their understanding of it.
