"This is an extraordinary Vajrakilaya teaching and quite rare
within the terma tradition. During the twentieth-century upheaval
in Tibet, almost all of Tsasum Lingpa's works were in danger of
being lost forever. Together the Khenpo Rinpoches have dedicated
much of their lives to the preservation of the wondrous spiritual
system envisioned by this 'crazy wisdom' terton. Revealed to the
Western world for the first time, The Dark Red Amulet is a
one-of-a-kind gem in every sense of the word."—Mikel Dunham, author
of Buddha's Warriors
"[The] extensive and thorough commentary clarifies and enlightens.
. . . An absolute must-have for any scholar or Buddhist
practitioner seeking to better understand the past and future path
of the Vajrayana practice of Vajrakilaya."—The Midwest Book
Review
"[A] feast for the mind and spirit."—New Age Retailer
"The Dark Red Amulet conveys the essential meaning of the
Vajrakilaya teachings and provides an invaluable guide for Tibetan
Buddhist practitioners to discover the absolute vajra nature. . . .
The book includes a translation of a brief biography of the text's
terton Tsasum Lingpa and a chapter of students' questions and the
Khenpos' answers."—Eastern Horizon
