According to the traditional Tibetan Buddhist formula of view, meditation, and action, this volume follows , which establishes the view of the Buddhist path generally, and specifically that of the teachings of the Great Perfection, and , which outlines the main points of meditation, namely, where one should meditate, what qualities a practitioner should possess and develop, and what should be practiced. The Padmakara Translation Group has provided us with a clear and fluid new translation of the final volume of the trilogy, , along with its autocommentary, , both intended to elucidate the appropriate action of a Buddhist practitioner. describes in detail the conduct of those who have stabilized their recognition of the nature of the mind and how to apply the Buddhist view when relating to ordinary appearances.

This is an invaluable manual for any genuine student of Buddhism who wishes to truly find rest through the path of the Great Perfection.
