"In this book, one of Tibet's greatest contemporary lamas makes the infinite profundity of the 'Great Perfection' amazingly accessible to the modern reader. With integrity and deep fidelity to these pinnacle teachings, Tenzin Wangyal shows us in very practical ways how we can touch our own depths and unlock the peace, confidence, warmth, and joy that lie within us all, just beneath the surface." "Reginald Ray, author of Touching Enlightenment, July 2011, Bon Master Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche's Tibetan Yogas of Body, Speech, and Mind (230 pp., many photos and illustrations) shows readers a variety of teachings and practices related to these "three doors to enlightenment." Among highlights are: Dzogchen practices to achieve "the body of light," mantras that provide healing through sounds, and energy practices to enhance clarity of mind. some of the most compelling reading is provided by his discussion of sound. A chapter on speech includes teachings that range from the readily accessible ("When speech becomes more integrated with awareness, everything you say becomes a form of spiritual practice") to the esoteric ("you can also try to cultivate awareness of the subtle vibration underlying your speech and of how your speech manifests from there. Is your voice creating the right energy field?") while Tenzin Wangyal encourages the reader to be skillful when deciding which practices we should use--"choosing the right door"--he is also careful to remind us that body, speech, and mind are closely related. Unfortunately, the way we often sense their connection is through pain. "Whether physically, energetically, or psychologically, we experience ourselves mainly through our pain," Rinpoche writes. "And because it is so familiar, it becomes an important door through which we discover our bigger self--and through this discovery, release our pain." --Sam Mowe, Tricylce, "The Buddhist Review," Spring, "In clear and lucid language, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche offers an amazingly rich array of traditional practices which, when practiced with a skilled teacher, can powerfully transform body, speech, and mind."--Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart "Traditional as well as innovative this book--a complement to his other work and also outstanding on its own--opens to supremely important narratives descriptions and exercises to introduce us most deeply to our own bodies."--Anne Carolyn Klein Rice, author of Heart Essence of the Vast Expanse: a Story of Transmission. "Rinpoche does a great service in making these ancient and powerful teachings available to all of us.This insightful and practical book is an invaluable resource."--Sharon Salzburg author of Real Happiness "With integrity and deep fidelity to these pinnacle teachings, Tenzin Wangyal shows us in very practical ways how we can touch our own depths and unlock the peace, confidence, warmth, and joy that lie within us all just beneath the surface."--Reginald Ray, author of Touching Enlightenment "Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche's latest book Tibetan Yogas of Body Speech and Mind (Snow Lion 2011) gives readers practical exercises from the Tibetan Bn tradition for working with and transforming what he calls "pain body," "pain speech," and "pain mind." Treating each of these distinct domains of the individual as a whole the author introduces practices of physical movement for the body healing sounds and mantra for the speech and visualizations and breathing techniques for the mind. This is done with a delicate balance of Bn Dzogchen technical terms such as the "body of light" and "nine pranas" juxtaposed with the author's anecdotes and analogies. For instance Tenzin Wangyal writes how Micky Rourke's character Randy "The Ram" in the film The Wrestler exemplifies someone characterized by the "pain body." The book contains numerous instructive photos, tables, and figures."-- Buddhadharma "Bn Master Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche's Tibetan Yogas of Body Speech and Mind shows readers a variety of teachings and practices related to these three doors to enlightenment.

Synopsis
Understanding how our actions words and thoughts interact enhances our ability to progress in spiritual practice and brings us closer to self-realization. In a warm informal style Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche opens up Tibetan meditation practice to both beginners and experienced students placing as much emphasis on practice as on knowledge. Depending on the sources of the problems in our lives he offers practices that work with the body speech or the mind-a collection of Tibetan yoga exercises visualizations, sacred sound practices, and spacious meditations on the nature of mind. Together he says knowledge and regular meditation practice can alter our self-image and lead to a lighter more joyful sense of being. The stillness of the body the silence of speech and the spacious awareness of mind are the true three doors to enlightenment., In his lively conversationally-toned presentation, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche clearly shows us how, no matter where we are or what we are doing or how stuck we feel in our pain, our more positive qualities are always accessible to us through our body, speech, and mind. Rather than always searching for happiness outside ourselves, we are shown how to look from a wider perspective and see the constantly present opportunity for reflection and connection with the joyful formless truth that is our authentic nature, and that can lead to the joy and peace inherent in us all.Tenzin Wangyal draws on a vast system of knowledge to show the many ways that body, speech, and mind can be utilized as doorways to happiness, contentment, better health, and ultimately liberation. These three doors of body, speech, and mind are viewed as the pathways to enlightenment in all the major spiritual traditions of Tibet. In fact they are seen as the only tools that we have for progressing on our spiritual journeys. But first we need to learn how to work with them.Everybody is looking for happiness and the causes of happiness, and everybody wants relief from suffering and the causes of suffering. Yet we usually look for happiness and relief from suffering in all the wrong places and in all the wrong ways. This book helps to open the "doors" to our fullest potential., Understanding how our actions words and thoughts interact enhances our ability to progress in spiritual practice and brings us closer to self-realization.

In this lively conversationally-toned presentation he shows us that no matter where we are on our spiritual and emotional paths, or how stuck we are in our pain, we can tap our fullest potential and access the positive qualities inherent in us all.
