"I rejoice in Tsem Rinpoche's endeavors to make these liberating instructions available to an international audience. His skills at conveying timeless wisdom in a contemporary way make him a precious spiritual friend to have."
--His Holiness Lungrik Namgyal Rinpoche
"Compassion Conquers All" reveals the heart of Buddhist wisdom in eight short verses, as elucidated by a fearless pioneer of contemporary Dharma.
Unconditional love and freedom are here and now if we let go of self-centered obsession and let ourselves be embraced by what is.
The very life we are living, with all its difficulties, failures, and frustrations, can be the road to liberation. The world can be our school of transformation. Everybody becomes our best friend. We become our own best friend.
Deeper and deeper, from learning to cherish all beings as precious, to realizing that those we perceived as enemies are our supreme teachers, the teachings in "Compassion Conquers All" transport us into our innermost heart where we discover that we are the light we have been longing for. Indeed, compassion conquers all.

Peace begins here, right where we are. Far from being a distant concept, inner and outer peace can be created at every moment, in every conversation, and with our every action.
In this compilation of short teachings, Tsem Rinpoche brings us back to the basics of what it means to create peace and lasting harmony within ourselves and with the people around us. He reveals surprising truths, offers us refreshing new perspectives, and gives us practical solutions for dealing with daily situations.
With this book, you will gain the tools to increase the happiness in your life and overcome the hurdles. You will also learn how to foster strong, joyous relationships with others, fight your demons, and enhance your own positive potential in everything you do. Ultimately, you will discover that, just like the book you are now holding, peace is entirely in your hands.
