Change Your Heart, Your Mind, the World

This life-changing book, now available in audio, is drawn from a series of trainings conducted by Tibetan meditation master His Eminence Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche and compiled, edited, and narrated by his student, Lama Shenpen Drolma. Many of the principles articulated in this audiobook are relatively easy to comprehend and common to a variety of spiritual traditions.

However, the actual experience of awakened mind—the wish that all beings be relieved of their suffering and experience enduring peace—takes place beyond the confines of any teaching, and ultimately beyond the realm of conceptual mind. Leading us skillfully to this awakened mind, Chagdud Tulku guides us through a time-honored instruction made accessible to our contemporary lives through the Bodhisattva Peace Training.

By taking these teachings to heart, we can begin to experience the embrace of wisdom and sanity that comes from giving rise to awakened mind. Of the vast array of thoughts and experience the human mind can give rise to, there is nothing more transformative than the simple profundity of a genuinely kind and good heart. On whatever level these teachings are applied—from the intimate sphere of personal experience to the complex dynamics of family, community, national, and even international relations—they’ll lead infallibly toward fulfillment and peace.
