FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Liberation through Hearing, or more fully, The Great Liberation through Hearing in the Intermediate States (bar-do thos-grol chen-mo), has become widely known by its descriptive nickname used in the West, The Tibetan Book of the Dead. These secret teachings are attributed to the 8th century Indian Buddhist Master Padma Sambhava, also known as Guru Rinpoche, and are thought to have then been hidden in Tibet. Such a text is regarded as a "treasure" or terma (gter ma) text to be rediscovered later, as this one was by Karma Lingpa in the 14th century.A number of legends have grown around Padma Sambhavas life and deeds, and he is widely venerated as a second Buddha across Tibet, Nepal, Bhutan, and the Himalayan states of India. The Nyingma School considers Padma Sambhava to be a founder of their tradition. Author Biography Tze-si Huang is a professional writer and translator. He was born in Chungking, the youngest of 10 children. After facing and overcoming trials of both survival and becoming educated, he eventually immigrated to the USA. He attended New York University and Columbia University for post graduate studies. Demi is an award-winning illustrator of numerous books for children. Her books include The Empty Pot, Nightingale, The Emperors New Clothes, and Gandhi, which was named the New York Times Best Illustrated Book and received the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award.
