The title of this book says it all!
This really is a life changing book. Geshe Kelsang manages to explain even the most profound teachings in ways that the western reader can immediately identify with and understand. I have read many Buddhist works and all of them have been helpful in my understanding of these teachings in one way or another. But this book, gently and with pristine clarity, shows the "armchair Buddhist" how to actually connect with Buddha's teachings in a realistic and deeply personal way. Don't pass up this book, it delivers big time.

Early guide to Lam-Rim
I read this book thinking that it ws going to be just a beginners guide to Buddhism. However, it is much more than that! It is a gentle guide to Lam-Rim teachings in a very precise way. Geshe Kelsang includes a number of very good explanations and illustrations about his topics at hand. In addition, it has a very contemporary feel to it. Many traditinal Lam-Rim texts and writings tend to be at least 30 years old, so the language and examples aren't always so useful. This text is really an exception-he really did an awesome job writing it. Though it might not be good to introduce someone to Buddhism, it is a great guide to furthering ones study of Lam-Rim.
