A beautiful and inspiring collection

Prayer Flags is a beautiful collection of "vajra songs of realization" and teachings of Jigten Sumgon, the great 12th century founder of the Drikung Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. It includes short biographies of Gampopa, Phagmo Drupa and Jigten Sumgon, and teachings on the Fivefold Profound Path of Mahamudra, transforming the experience of death, and other practices. These ancient songs and teachings are expertly translated by Khenpo Konchog Gyaltsen and will be appreciated by anyone interested in Mahamudra or the Drikung Kagyu lineage.
