The Hundred Verses of Advice Tibetan Buddhist Teachings on what Matters Most
Two great masters present the Buddhist path in its entirety in Padampa Sangye's hundred pithy verses of advice and Dilgo Khyentse's accompanying commentary. These verses present instructions to all Buddhist meditators, especially laypeople, who are trying to live in the workaday world and practice the Buddhist teachings. They offer the best approach to family squabbles and resentment; obsession with material wealth; betrayal by friends; loneliness; abandonment; the illusory nature of sense pleasures-and the imminence of death.

Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche (1910–1991) was a highly accomplished meditation master, scholar, and poet, and a principal holder of the Nyingma lineage. His extraordinary depth of realization enabled him to be, for all who met him, a foundation of loving-kindness, wisdom, and compassion. A dedicated exponent of the nonsectarian Rime movement, Khyentse Rinpoche was respected by all schools of Tibetan Buddhism and taught many eminent teachers, including His Holiness the Dalai Lama. He tirelessly worked to uphold the Dharma through the publication of texts, the building of monasteries and stupas, and by offering instruction to thousands of people throughout the world. His writings in Tibetan fill twenty-five volumes.
