"Light Comes Through shimmers with frank advice on becoming more intelligent about our emotions. Dzigar Kongtrül offers a practical path to clarity and peace."--Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence
"This slender book has wisdom for practitioners of all levels. . . . There is a comforting bravery in [Kongtrül's] thinking that clarifies the differences between 'trying to arrange the world according to our preferences' and 'delighting in the way our experience naturally unfolds.' This is a suitably calm and graceful pathway illuminated by a Buddhist master."--Publishers Weekly
"This is a wonderful fresh look at the amazing potential of our human mind. In the innovative and accessible style he is famous for, Dzigar Kongtrül continues to challenge and encourage us."--Pema Chödrön, author of When Things Fall Apart and Practicing Peace in Times of War
"Light Comes Through is an inspired, well-written, and creative examination of topics such as faith, romance, developing happiness for others, and facing our own suffering with perspective and compassion. It is a wonderful guidebook for living a very different kind of life."--Sharon Salzberg, author of Lovingkindness: The Revolutionary Art of Happiness
