MIRACULOUS JOURNEY
by Milarepa / Kunga Rinpoche, tr.
A rare collection of previously untranslated narratives and songs of the famous Tibetan poet-yogi Milarepa. This work is an untampered compilation of Milarepa's songs as preserved and sung by wandering yogis of the Kagyu sect. The pieces differ from those in the two popular volumes on Milarepa, the Autobiography and the Hundred-Thousand Songs, in their range of material and directness of style, while continuing a high level of poetic expression. Thus they give a more candid glimpse of this famous yogi's personality than the more official versions.
