Treasures of the Sakya Lineage

"Treasures of the Sakya Lineage" is one of the first in-depth looks into the Sakya lineage of Tibetan Buddhism (one of the four major schools) available in English. The book includes a foreword by the head of the lineage, H. H. Sakya Trizin Rinpoche, and an introduction by Dzongsar Khyentse. A rich collection of teachings on a variety of pertinent subjects by key figures, this book provides the reader with a thorough overview of the history, view, key lineage figures, and crucial teachings. This book will be indispensable for Western students of the Sakya lineage, for whom there is very little English language literature available. A great resource for scholars, students, and practitioners of all schools of Tibetan Buddhism, this volume contains essays from the key members of the Sakya school, including: H. H. Sakya Trizin, Khenpo Appey, Sakya Pandita, Peter Della Santina, Jetsun Dragpa Gyaltsen, Chogye Trinchen, Choegyal Phagpa, and Migmar Tseten.
