James Low is one of the most relevant and respected Dzogchen masters of Tibetan Buddhism in the West. In this work, written for a time of upheaval, humanitarian crisis and transformation, we find the keys to applying Buddhist teachings to our complex engagement with the modern world. We all face increasingly arduous life-sustaining tasks as we struggle to cope with the profound impact of climate change, conflict, economic chaos, and environmental and political instability. In addition, our own inner life is prey to tendencies, impulses and blind spots, so that our perception of the world is often more confused than we imagine. James Low's Buddhist vision encourages us to see the ungraspable illusory nature of every situation so that we can avoid being tossed about by samsara's waves of hopes and fears. 'Buddha Shows the Way' contains eighteen short chapters that can be read in any order, so it is a book that can give us light and guidance depending on the mood and time available.
